I’m surprised this was stretched out into an entire book. I’m not sure there’s much there or anything that can be taken away about the future being more analog. The argument simplifies to: when people weren’t allowed to do things in doors with others, they all went outdoors and had to take a break from the computer. The leap is they’ll now all love being outdoors and doing these things because I love doing these things. To find an easy counter example to that - flour is now well stocked and I haven’t had home baked sour dough for two years now. Instead of a societal shift to “analog” this all may just be a flash in the pan.
