As James Scott pointed out, Taylorism was invented to minimize worker discretion and reliance on the worker's distributed knowledge -- even at the cost of reduced efficiency.
The reason is that discretion cannot be safely entrusted in someone who knows their interests are directly opposed to yours.

Brain genius Jacob Hornberger demolishes the myth that retirees get back the money they paid into Social Security.
Wait till he finds out that the bank doesn't actually mark the specific dollars you deposited and put them into a lock box -- you just get paid out from the credits you accumulated, exactly like with SS.
Worse yet, as monetary historian A. Mitchell-Innes showed, money has never been anything but a system of credits and debits.

Moreover, this lack of competition is why the Google Search experience has become so utterly awful. While monopolies can feel a little monolithic..., understanding the damage they do is fairly simple: if you’re not worried about the competition, why would you worry about losing customers?
Monopolies are a big part of why everything feels like it stopped working.

And when it's a close associate he decides to cut loose -- even if it's someone he was publicly praising up to five minutes before -- suddenly he never knew them, never liked them, and they're "failing." Or if he's accused of raping them, they're "not his type."

This seems to assume that "property rights" are simply recognized by government -- as opposed to being defined or created by it.
In fact, the customary rights that predated the state were mostly communal, and modern "private property" -- in the sense of land as a marketable commodity that could be controlled by absentee owners -- was a creation of the state.
