Many renowned scientists and researchers were also mystics. Mysticism is a personal, subjective framework for insight and self-improvement that doesn't have to follow the rules of the scientific method.

This seems like a one-sided stopgap to a problem that is undoubtedly two-sided and it sets a precedent for [the author's definition of] respect that cannot be maintained indefinitely. For example, what if you were just about to put the glass in the dishwasher but the doorbell rings?
The only settings that come to mind where this level of "adherence" is maintained are prisons or abusive households where everyone is in fear of punishment, and where punishments can even be handed out by the warden for no reason at all.

I'm a teetotaler fitness nerd who gets 8 hours every night and wakes up early.
My problem is entirely around my absence of career direction.

It felt like a sort of kabuki of the original Matrix, as written by Redditors who were tasked with making it as self-referential as possible.
