Hmm... Interesting analogy. What about breaking in an engine properly? Would that be considered rest? I have no point with this, I'm just noodling around with the analogy to see how apt it is.
It was more exasperation with how I feel like we're treated. I mean ffs at my job we have different toilet paper for the "real people" who work in the office and 1ply sandpaper for us barbarians. :/
Not sure about engines, but when you "break in" a horse that doesn't seem like much of a "rest" for the horse. More so indoctrination or submissive tactics.
Breaking a horse is breaking it's spirit from what I can tell.
Breaking in an engine you drive it below the suggested RPM limit while the pistons set into their seals, etc.
