I only know how to socialize in person, so nobody should be allowed to socialize virtually

I want to be able to physically interrupt your concentration and intrude on your personal space without you having any way to stop me
I hope this comment can help elucidate for you and other readers how miserable offices are for people who don't actually do better in-person, and how frustrating it is that people who want to work in-person feel the need for _everyone_ to work in-person with them, despite pro-remote people not needing others to change their working circumstances.
