You can go above and beyond during designated work hours.

To allow work outside of these hours is a race to the bottom in a rat race to see who can no-life it the hardest for the least money.

If you can't make yourself stand out with the same amount of hours as your coworkers, then maybe you should come to terms with the fact that you just aren't exceptional.

Or perhaps different people prioritize different things and who are you to judge or say otherwise?

This is a tragedy of the commons type situation. When your workaholism infringes on the lives of your coworkers, then your coworkers do have a right to say something.

Its unreasonable to say that individual exceptionalism is all that matters for success. There needs to be a way for hard work yo matter as well. Perhaps have both union and non-union shops and let employees vote with their feet.
