Sounds like you aren’t listening to youself?

Folks have to meet in the middle somewhere if we want a society - some people want full office, some people want full remote, some people want a hybrid. They can’t all be happy.

Saying ‘I want to meet my coworkers face to face at least some of the time’ seems like the compromise position if anything.

That’s what team offsites, conferences and company outings are for. There’s more ways to get face to face time then “go to the office to work”

And you’ve got a bunch of people that want one at least every week, so they can talk to their coworkers - but without all the overhead from scheduling a big event. The world is made of many different kinds of people. Hand waving a huge portion of them away on either side isn’t great.
