A lot of people like the feeling of progression. If, whenever I improve somewhere, I have to cut back elsewhere to keep myself at the same overall level of productivity, that just feels bad. I'd rather just get more work done and get a raise.

I don't think the your parent was talking on an individual level, but a more macroeconomic level where this appears to not be happening[1].

If it doesn't happen at the individual level, why should it happen at the systemic level?
