I find this a bit silly. 80/20 is more like "Somewhere between 60/40 and 100/0" I had a boss ask me not to take a second university class, this was smart for everyone involved. There are busy times and work and boring times at work, to push that it unrealistic to manage a structured life outside of work is silly. Ive worked with professors that let me take 2 weeks off for Work Travel. I've had to cut out of work because I had a class. I came in early the next day and prepared for my meeting, things were fine. I'm a big fan of moderation, and this article claims an extreme situation that is temporary and often unlikely.
