I've noticed the obsession about hours worked tends to correlate with insecurities surrounding competence. Managers who were acutely aware of how little they understood about what went on underneath them tended to be the ones who spent the most time in the office and who cared most about what time people came/left. They also tend to be the ones who are the most against remote working. Competent people don't require those metrics.
