I'm alluding to phrases such as "work-life balance", which presuppose that work and life are two different things. They're not; it's all life.
Would it be better if they said "work/social life balance"?
I'd say worse, since "social life" strikes me as further compartmentalization of "life". I don't, separately, have a life and also a social life. Rather, I value having friends, and I will seek to make friends anywhere, including at work. Some of my best friends are colleagues or clients.
I'm pretty sure it's a euphemism for "family." If you don't have kids (or at least a spouse), then you're not really supposed to talk about it.
Only slightly.
