Surviving Mars - Employment issue

Question

Is the game at the end unbalanced?
At the "end", you can enhance your work places so that less people need to work there, while I got a big population, and now less jobs.  Resulting in my people becoming depressed for being unemployed.
So to make my people happy again, I removed this enhancement, so they had a job again.
I loved playing Surviving Mars, but this seemed a bit unbalanced to me.

Did you noticed the Workshop Milestone ?

40% Workers in Workshops

This should give you a clue.
The Workshops are bascially useless factories that use ressources and produce... nothing.

(Ok, I'm lying, they produce confort and morale).
Their main purpose is to give (air quotes) "jobs" to your unemployed population, and helping you finding the perfect equilibrium between production and employement.
And once you found this perfect equilibrium, the birth control option is here to ensure your population stays at that level.
With the correct breakthroughs, I imagine you can put 80 to 90% of your population in those workshops. Creating the perfect utopia (except for those 10% still needing to work).
