Counterexample: I have been WFH since March. I live in a small condo and having to turn my also small dinner table into a cluttered office (USB mic cable, laptop power cable, notepad, external mouse) just makes me feel like I am never really not at work. Even when sitting by the TV, the 'work' is but a mere 6 feet away.

Ironically, my productivity has also been getting measurably worse.

I've realized that I need IRL interaction with my co-workers that's outside of scheduled Zoom calls. I like running into them in the break room and making small talk while making a coffee. I am in a large organization, and having that interaction also gets me talking to people who aren't my direct co-workers.
