If AI is imminently going to disrupt all knowledge work, it likely follows that AI will shortly after make dramatic optimizations in knowledge worker adjacent fields, ie all commercial/professional fields. In this scenario, in a very short period of time, most human labor will become uneconomical for employers.

Perhaps, but just optimization and enhancement in the organization of more physical/mechanical labor would probably cut the demand for those kinds of jobs. Self driving trucks are a good example; there may still be human drivers involved, but likely many less.
