>normally we have aside a physical local social life

A normal physical local social life is dramatically smaller in quantity than the working day. Meeting friends for meals or weekend activities does not really make up for being alone 9-5 Monday-Friday. And it is pretty hard to activate people on weeknights after 5-7 hours of Zoom.

That's one of the reason we (humans, in various countries around the world) actually push 4 days workweek especially since the evolution of productivity and actual natural resource scarcity.

It will take time, of course, but that's the good target we can tray to reach, in the end basing social life around work is not that good for many reasons, specially when you do not like much a colleague but have to work with him/her etc.
