I will honestly say that, for small class sizes, the difference is not that noticeable. Sure, office hours are much more awkward to set up, but the study groups are actually more active on discord than they were when everyone was trying to plan things in person, and in my opinion offset the loss of non-awkward office hours. YMMV, as the article clearly demonstrates, but for me it has been fine.
