You are conflating showing up at a physical office with being accountable and doing your work. True, my employer doesn’t care about my whereabouts, but they do care that I’m contributing, available to my colleagues, and adhering to reasonable schedules/deadlines. The reality is that for knowledge workers, none of this requires regular physical presence in an office with Zoom, Slack, and a calendar. This is a fact that’s been proven and accepted in my workplace for years now and there’s no reason to go back.
