I bet someone has this kind of measurement where a lot of manual labour is needed.

Frederick Taylor did an exact study on this sort of thing for multiple manual tasks back in the late 1800s/early 1900s.

Of course, he also advocated for higher wages and shorter working hours for those who were capable of accomplishing more, but that part gets conveniently forgotten about 🤷‍♀️
