That doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. If half the people you're interacting with are in the office, isn't there something to still be gained by interacting with them in the same physical space? There might be a detraction by having the other half work remotely, but why would that outweigh the positives of working in-office? All you'd have to do is get the remote workers on a call or Zoom, which you'd do at home anyway, except you could also meet in-person with other coworkers. I guess I don't see how there's "no point." Apparently, in your example, the positives of just working at home outweigh the advantages of working in-office when both are proportionally 50/50.
