Strongly agree. I try to limit my WIP tasks to around 8, and even then it's a constant struggle to keep at least one unblocked. The burger shop analogy seems a little nonsensical too. Most of the time it takes for a burger to be made is waiting for the meat to cook. Conveyor grills exist, it's rare for grill space to be a limiting factor. So, burgers absolutely are assembled in parallel, it's a good example of the opposite strategy to the one the author is advocating.
