Agreed, and I think the deliberate election of certain restraints actually IS freedom. Just a different kind than most people think about. It’s positive freedom (aka freedom-to) vs the negative freedom (freedom-from) of having zero constraints.

*Using “negative” and “positive” freedom in the Isaiah Berlin sense

quoting note1vmc…l695

Interesting takes by levels.io on lex fridman in the context of being a diginal nomad:

“Freedom doesn’t make you happy, constraints do” -levels

“I am free thats why i am lost” - kafka

Freedom is pretty great, but constraints (family, kids, relationships) keep us locked in and focused. Thats how i interpreted it at least.
