I like your framing. I think the challenge is just that people have different personalities. Some will be happy to go out with coworkers multiple times a week (and will stay in #2 unless they get the social aspect), some will treat a company-comped steak dinner and drinks once a quarter as a tyrannical step towards slavery (and will easily slip from #3 to #4 at the mere suggestion). Hard to manage both types in the same team, especially if people are remote.
