HELP! The CEOs and higher-ups are trying to make us go back to the office starting next month

Pretty much like the title says.. today they announced, that, while it's not full-time (for now), the current “plan” is 1-2x per month (but, I'm not stupid and I feel as though you give them an inch and suddenly it increases to 1x a week, then a 2/3 hybrid split…). I absolutely LOVE my WFH set-up. It was a huge incentive in me taking this job to begin with. It's given me so much more of my life back, and quite frankly, I have no desire to shake things up.

And finally, post-pandemic, I really have no desire to be stuffed into a poorly ventilated offices with a bunch of other people. We were told that if we have concerns, we can express them to our managers, and I definitely plan to, but wanted to see if anyone had some good suggestions for how to communicate my lack of desire to return to the office in a professional and convincing manner.
