I commented further below but tldr is that it was always 40 hour work week. This makes it 40 hours still but in 5 days instead of 6. All it does is makes it so you don’t have to travel one day for work but same amount of work hours.
Not having to commute and be at a workplace for an additional day is massive though.
Next step lets work on that 40 hours, because almost all of the rest of the world has on between 36 and 38 to account for legally required lunch and breaks, and the current push is to even less (~32-35) for 4-day work weeks.
