Ironically I think Ms. Schwartz could stand to improve her writing, and be more productive with her audience's time. I gave up 7 long paragraphs in, after realizing that:
a) no real counterclaim had been made yet, and
b) I was only 1/4 of the way through this article
Her concluding paragraph is that you should do non-productive tasks sometimes, disconnect, and enjoy yourself. The great irony in this is that I recall being given the same advice in the last couple of self help books I read, Deep Work and The Shallows.
This article seems to be a mountain of words to broad brush a genre, but then I could be wrong, as I only read a quarter of it.
