If I'm following the author, increased efficiency (successful software projects) leads to increased time on the hands of bureaucrats. Increased time leads to increased meaningless tasks. So, the author's solution is not to find something meaningful for people to do with the time, or to simply give people more time off work (because according to the 2 references he cites, that would be impossible), but to celebrate the destruction of efficiency (failed software projects). There are many things wrong with the way our society rewards work/ constructs bureaucracies. I think, however, that it wouldn't be too hard to come up with some practical solutions rather than encourage subconscious intentional failure.
