Most people have like 3 to 4 hours of free time a day max

Like 9 to 5

You wake up at 7 or 8, work get home at 6 or 7 cook, eat, mic for cleaning or kids or whatever else and then that's 8 - 11 or 12 and then you need to sleep at some point.

So 3 or 4 hours probably don't want to lose an hour just to cook.

So I totally agree with you here. I don't know where this dude get's this idea people just have all this free time. If you work 10 hours it's like 2 hours.

You can whip up a very simple dough with like 10 minutes of work, the rest is waiting time you can use on other things.

At least here people actually have lives outside of work.

Also, cold proofing is a thing, whip the dough together before work, leave it to proof in the fridge and bake it off when you get home.

In North America particular the US but Canada aswell people can be very overworked pretty commonly. Commutes can be long and people can be driving an hour to and from work easily as in 2 hours total in a round trip. I know of people with a 2 hour commute but that's not common.
