I agree with everything else you said, just wanted to clarify that 4 days works fine for the field too. Off the top of my head I can't think of many situations where a 4 day schedule wouldn't work better than a 5 day schedule, jobs where travel is involved/out of town work being the only exception off the top of my head

I’m not sure we even have a 5 day work week for our field people. 7/7 14/7 or 21/5.
