It sucks that this was your office experience, but your experience is not universal. I commute around 14km taking around 25mins, or considerably less when I take my motorcycle. My office is a large, vibrant building filled with interesting people.

WFH is challenging for me, with two young kids and not enough space. I feel bored and isolated spending so much time alone.

Woah. 14km in 25min is 33.5km/h. What is your mode of transport, beside motocycle? Who commutes that fast anywhere in the world? Then you said "considerably less when I take my motorcycle". Are you traveling on average > 50km/h during your commute? That is incredible in the modern, developed world -- extremely rare.
Wouldn't it be amazing that each person in the team could decide where to work? I could work from home and you could work from the office. Win-Win.
With two young kids a motorcycle commute seems like something to avoid.
The only thing worse than dying is not living.
Don’t talk him out of motorcycling please, motorcyclist are one of the best sources of donor organs we have these days…
similar for me, 8km commute (~15 mins), at home I am alone and don't have concentration to work, in the office I am with people and environment makes me to easier to do my job
