> The author points to Japan to illustrate that you do get measurably better results when people habitually try to do good work
People in Japan habitually kill themselves because of their stupid work culture. Maybe that's not the best example.
Your rebuttal is dated. Suicide rates have been steadily declining in Japan and rising in the West to the point where suicides are actually less common in Japan than they are in the US currently. So perhaps it is a good example.
That’s not limited to Japan.
And besides it’s a strange take to argue that you shouldn’t acknowledge good thing A because unrelated thing B is bad there.
