Sure, but they have bigger problems and hopefully are seeking professional help not thinking about advanced productivity techniques like this thread is about.
For most people this is a perfectly fine point. This trend of "but wait this won't work for this particular group" in online conversation isn't useful.
This obviously wasn't directed at heavily depressed people or people struggling it was directed at otherwise normally functioning people trying to have an edge.
Apologies, I didn't mean to ruin your argument by citing groups and circumstances to which it doesn't apply.
I mostly meant to question your definition of normally functioning people. IMO from a lifetime of observations the normal state of your average human is being passive, not learning, not improving, and not changing their life situation. Hence my comment. Sorry that it was worded a bit poorly.
You probably meant "your normal functioning human that also wants to improve their life", I assume.
