I read it more as a suggestion, not a requirement.

I just realized that the 10000 hour rule (if you believe in it) roughly translates to 5-6 years.

I think they say 5-8 years because that's enough time to make and learn from mistakes and getting experience from different types of projects etc. Diverse experience in other words.

I totally agree, the 1000 hour rule is made by observing the top people in sports , tech .. so yeah I think what are you saying isn't just a point of view , it can be "scientifically" proved.
That's smart Andrew , thanks for sharing ♥

There's a lot of discussion around the 10k hour rule too.. and last I saw it's been scientifically proven to be false. However, I think there is some guidance in it - and I don't know any of the science for or against it. :)
