Estimating hours for a project is essentially project based billing, it is just more granular. I don’t think the developers who only work 3 hours a day when they are employed full time are being amoral. If they can do it, more power to them. I often work 6-8hrs a day with meetings taking 40% of my time. During crunch, I work far more. I don’t think there is anything amoral when the system doesn’t work for me either.
