There's a huge difference between what we all did over the last year and a normal remote working situation. A lot of the worst part of WFH for most people really is a combination of WFH and pandemic pain, rather than purely being a WFH issue. I've spent most of my career doing remote work. Since I planned on it, rather than being forced into it, I was able to do things like rent an apartment with space for an office and set it up how I like. That actually adds to my balance as I can "go to the office" and then "leave the office" when I'm done. A lot of people in the pandemic era aren't as lucky there since it was so unplanned. More importantly to your point though is that remote work normally doesn't mean "only work from home". Outside of the pandemic I would regular take my laptop to parks, libraries, or other spaces for a change of scenery. With the pandemic that wasn't an option as places were closed. I'm hoping to continue this now that things are reopening.
