I was thinking more about the MUP problem in my area, and I have come up with a solution. If we introduced bears to our area, darwinism would take care of the rest. You don’t shove airpods in your ears in Alaska while you run. Ask me how I know.
Try doing a totally Z1 recovery ride. It's funny. I can manage maybe half an hour of that, power below 140w. BUT everything I read about recovery rides says 1) they're good and 2) they're much better if you don't cheat them. I probably ought to do one tonight, since 2/3 of last night's ride was either Tempo or Threshold HR.
