I personally feel quite lucky & fortunate to have companies that have been quite social. Well over 50% of conversations only happen because of physical immediacy. One person grumbles or just looks stressed. Someone asks. A conversation starts. Two people start chatting about some implementation. Someone else overhears & suggests another idea. Going to lunch and people chat over plans or things they want. I strongly disagree with you. Meetings are a godforsaken hellish awful replacement for socialization.
