This quote solidified my choice for a time management/productivity book for the next book, if you're compelled to write it. GTD is a great system, but it makes machines out of people. I can sense that most applications of time management systems and GTD bind people to be very objective and "in their head". Some people require or work really well with that kind of system, but I wonder how many people burn out of it since it has a tendency to run your life instead of the other way around. Personally I'd like to see how people can be more effective without such a head-based time management/effectiveness system.

Please do. I think you've got a good starter with your post.
I also think the polarity topic is interesting but it's not a priority. I feel that it could be worked on as a side project when you have the impulse to write about it or need to brain dump until you have the material to really dive into it.
