Remote work has proven to be just as efficient for many industries, yet we have people calling for a return to the office. Writers computer programmers graphic designer is, many people who do work on a computer, can pretty much do that same work from anywhere. This whole idea of returning to the office, I don't understand what's behind it, and I personally don't care.
