It’s not a singular issue. You both have valid points.
It’s also about local economies losing the market share they had pre 2020. Every business in between your house and your job loses revenue. And all of that encompasses local tax revenue.
In other words it’s completely changed the commuting economy in it’s entirety. From the top down and those who have vested interests want that back.

Those are actual logical reasons. I personally think it’s more emotional.
For most of the last 100 years the corner office with a view and all sorts of luxuries has been a “reward” for middle to upper management.
Now nobody gives a shit about those offices. It hurts their feelers that nobody gives a shit about their perks anymore.

Absolutely, it’s a huge cultural shift. And it happened quick too, which humans aren’t really good at reacting to.
I think every reason you can imagine plays a role in it. But yeah the cultural norms are a huge part of it, we’ve been conditioned to view those things as success.
