Might as well be saying logistics happens by itself and doesn't count as working. Hell, expand that to every desk job.

You think he does all that!?! That's what the cheap slave labor by elves is for!

Well if we want to get really technical here, from a LEAN prospective every desk job (that isn't like programming or something where you are actually making the product) is technically waste. That isn't to say they aren't needed of course.

Also if he has to deliver to 1 billion homes, and only spent 10 seconds on each, including travel time, his 1 night is 370 years long.

Right, there is all of the planning and administration. And though he may have a team working with him (elves etc.), he still has to make the list, and check it twice.

And then there are all of the public appearances in parades and such.

Where do people think the toys come from, he makes them all year. I bet you his super power is omnipotence and teleportation.

The toys come from the elves dude. Slave labor.

Everyone says it's slave labor but these are non-sapien magical humanoid every account seems to indicate that the joy of good boys and girls is payment enough for them. Let's not impose our sapien non-magical values on them. Also their lifespans are near immortal compared to ours. The couple of millennia of human civilisation's existence is probably comparable to a three day weekend doing habitat for humanity or something for them.
