I’m confused by this comment. Humans were nomadic for thousands of years, you could even say we’re predisposed to it.
Why shouldn’t one feel comfortable in a permanently “rootless” existence?

I have to imagine that "nomadic in tribes" is different than "I live alone in a string of airbnbs."

Humans likely weren't nomadic by choice, and most societies settled down the second they had the ability to do so. Even among nomadic groups, most ventured to and from the same places and would stay settled for large portions of the year.
