No, it's not really a personal choice the way you mean--which essentially makes "balance" have no meaning.
It's detrimental because it's unhealthy for you (c.f. consciously choosing to smoke tobacco products) and it's also unhealthy for your peers--because your employers will always prefer the person who devotes himself to service of the employer over balanced individuals who don't, forcing them to adjust toward the unhealthy end.

Someone else may feel that 90-10 is a good balance for them at that particular time. > It's detrimental because it's unhealthy for you Working a lot isn't inherently unhealthy. You can be physically and mentally healthy while working a lot. > forcing them to adjust toward the unhealthy end Only if they want to keep up. I don't think about working more as "service of [my] employer", it's about faster personal growth. I don't expect other people to also work more, but I'm also not going to slow down for them.
