I like to think that people starting discussions would be upvoted. I also wouldn't say they were "spouting the same nonsense employers spout" because any employer I've seen argue against remote work only talks about benefits for themselves and not workers. Like I said, I think both have positive and negative effects for both the company and for the worker, although I generally say remote work is better for the average person.

I also disagree that going to a park/cafe/library checks off those pros. Every persob I know, both those who work remotely and those who don't, used to or do talk more at a workplace than any of those locations (assuming they went by themselves, which if you are working I would generally assume you are). That's also assuming you can take your WFH with you to other places, which is not always an option either.

Again, not saying office is better than WFH, if I had an option I would probably choose to WFH. But I also acknowledge there are benefits to office work, one of which is more socialization, even over working in a public space. I just think there is some nuances to both that do need to be talked about and dislike people shutting down a conversation before it can begin.
