Yeah, I also don't get why people expect to work 2 hrs instead of 8 and receive same salary.
Once you go from horse to tractor the fields increase but work hours doesn't decrease. And if you still use a horse, you are outperformed by the tractor guys who will sell stuff at less the price that you can sustain.
I've done this for years thanks to remote work

I don't get paid more when I work 9 or 10 hours, do I?
I am theoretically paid on deliverables, not hours.
