This is an absolutely unhinged personal attack on the op that has nothing to do with their comment. Why do you assume they are intentionally slowing things down? Because their analysis of the situation is that some people will be fired?
They're challenging someone to "test it" by burning down a backlog, because the other person thinks they will just do more work, with the implication that this person believes they'll just be laid off - and so they are better off not burning down the backlog of work.

I take an issue with that mindset because I know it is not true. And I'm not sure why you think I am attacking this person - if someone were to actually sandbag their own career, that is probably one of the most damaging mistakes they could make. Maybe I misunderstand something, if so I apologize for that
