But it's not practical for hams to do that in their home workshops. Grounding
straps and anti-static mats, yes. I'll put an anti-static mat on my shopping
list.
Conductive floor in the shack area is not going to happen. :-)

“Because of this, you must be constantly grounded by a wrist strap.”
When you get really serious about static control, you make the floor
conductive and require all
personnel to wear heel straps. Standard procedure at HP microwave instrument
production areas.
Static damage costs real money.
