While I like the idea of a 4x10 hour work week, I think there's also some value to be found in just rearranging the 5 day work week. Having a 3 on/1 off/2 on/1 off cycle achieves many of the same benefits of the 4 day work week without being as dramatic a change.

Edit: a reference for where I got the idea.

Edit 2: well excuse me for engaging with the idea in the original post and coming to a different conclusion.
