Definitely crazy. I've been WFH for a few years now and I've created a method that works really well for me: I make a hard separation between work time and me time. During work time (which starts at 8:00 local time for me) I don't do anything else that I wouldn't do at the office, and this goes on until 15:30 (I have lunch during work), at which point I shut down my work computer and phone and never touch them again until 8:00 the following day.
I'm actually more productive because I don't spend > 1hr socializing during the day, like I did at the office and have far fewer interruptions.
Regarding deadlines, we plan our sprints and provide estimates for all tasks. Sometimes they slip but if I spend more time one day working on something, you bet your ass that I'm leaving that same amount of hours early next Friday. It's been years since I worked 40 hours in any given week.
