We should be anchoring 4-day workweek at 90% (or more), rather than 80%, when talking to employers.
If you claim that people are more productive and diminishing returns kick in at the 4-day mark, then that by definition means that the first 80% of time spent on work is responsible for more than 80% of output.
A good point in favor of doing this is multiple EU countries already operating on a 35-hour work week and paying 100% of the salary. This is equivalent to 91.42% at 32 hours.
That's the number we should be trying to aim for.
