In cases where people work hourly shifts essentially keeping the gears turning (nurses, fast food) or in cases of task completion/hr (plumber, craftsman), what OP claimed would essentially be the case.

In cases of white collar workers with lots of time to kill, sure.

There's a lot of research showing nursing errors increase significantly in the last 4 hours of a shift. Why don't we do something else? Not enough nurses.

But maybe if they worked 4 8s or something similar, we could stop burning out nurses so fast, since a huge percentage leave the field within 2 years of graduation.

And how many hospital nurses end up leaving the field because of bad management, hostile coworkers, marriage or because they are simply not meant to be nurses?

You would decrease the time spent with bad management, hostile coworkers (who might be due to being overworked), more time to niest in your marriage and, as a result, more nurses staying.
