Rather than keeping all your other expenditures the same and reducing your savings outgoings by 100% each month, what about reducing all your expenditures by 20%?

Unless your income and outgoings have been fixed at their exact current levels for your whole life, there's nothing magical about their current values and they could change?

Having 50% more free time and ~45% (20% of each 2 day weekend and none allocated to the additional weekend day) reduced financial means to enjoy it sounds like a pretty bad tradeoff.
