It is possible to construct examples of people who are mode collapsed with maximal slack, and people who aren’t mode collapsed despite always being stuffed for time.
Are you only talking about time slack, or are you including other things? I would be curious if you have an example that isn’t immediately vulnerable to “the slack deprivation centers on a different taut constraint” reframings.
it is vuln only if your definition of ‘slack deprivation’ can be caused by giving people more freedom, which undermines the implicit goal of the ending
I think tying mode collapse to work is misleading, and slack is just a proxy for exploration and diversity.
Can you say more about why you think this?

I interpreted the “slack” to be about capacity, not whether that capacity is actually being used?
