There's nothing wrong with increasing your efficiency in responding to that call.
We need to distinguish between the technological and the social. Increasing your ability to work in more times and more places is great! It means that if you really need it, you can use it instead of just being screwed.
Socially, we need to realize that this incredible ability needs to only be used when truly necessary. Dumbing down the technology to not support it is not the answer.
