I've recently "seen the light" as well. Had been forced to work from home due to an injury - and it's pretty great. The PC setup is what I make of it. My chair is the one I like, not the allocated one. The coffee I drink is of my own choosing.

And there aren't any interruptions or work noise or being face to face in meetings with people I don't like.

Years ago my old work's Senior programmer got an expensive motorized standup desk, in a private room. And I was stuck in an exposed cubicle with extra narrow desk space, with no hope of getting that kind of treatment.

I thankfully work remote now. I dont have separate room but just a corner of our bedroom, with a standup desk. I hope I never have to go back to working in a normal office.
