I'd rather have 30 incredibly intense and productive hours than 60 completely chill no stress do a little of this a little of that hours.

My old job was 60-70 hours of incredibly intense productivity (was working for a Japanese corporation) and I learnt at a rate well above what other workers would due to the intensity, but then I had a breakdown from burn out. Keeping that tempo for fewer hours is the best of both worlds. Employers need to be focused on output rather than time logged.

I agree. There's also that benefit you forgot to mention that you have 30 hours more free time to spend however you like, instead of somewhat "free" time that you have to spend at work.
