like players can optimise all the fun out of a game, companies can optimise all competency out of workers. while both are a consequence of a natural or logical tendency, neither is good. Once a player optimises all the fun out of a game, they stop playing it, often without experiencing it in its entirety (which I would regard as a negative outcome for both player and game) I am not able to extrapolate with confidence what the analogous outcome would be in the company/worker side of the equation. I would confidently say, out of just anecdotal experience, it's not trending in a good direction. edit: typo corrections
