Yes? Would you not want this for you? I would, this would allow me to work on whatever is meaningful for me, what I believe is worth doing, and engage in other enjoying activity. I'm working towards having the most meaningful "paid" work possible, but as long as I have to cater to customer or company needs, it has small chances to be fully aligned with what I want to do. I also believe a lot of useless crap gets produced, we don't need to work as much as we are doing and we would be better off on many aspects reducing this amount of useless work we impose ourselves as a species. So of course 0 days of work per week for everyone is not conceivable, but reducing the hours is largely imaginable.
We are not talking about a 1 or 0 day work week here though. Various studies and experiments show that productivity is not quite reduced from 5 to 4 day week workdays, while making people happier. Assuming it's true, it's worth it and we have little reason not to do it.
