My guess is that it’s the share holder class pushing them to not allow WFH, due to also being heavily invested in business real estate combined with middle management knowing they could function with less of or without them.

You’re giving the system way too much credit for being cohesive and organized. I’ve known one bullheaded manager after another who individually just outright disbelieves working from home can work, no matter how much evidence is staring them in their face. They just know what they know because they know it, and in the context of their little kingdom they’re used to having the power to make people shut up. They’ll reel off a standard list of talking points, which are opportunities for you to back down, and if they run out of those they’ll end the conversation with something like, “Well I’m sorry we can’t agree on this” - with the implied “but I’m in charge.”
