Couldn't there be an Option 4 like this?
4) Some companies have a significant amount of capital tied up in CRE. Preventing its value from going to from $X to $0 is valuable to the tune of $X. There is no apparent cost to the C-suite in enforcing RTO. So for no cost, you can save $X. It's simple, non-complex, and tied to obvious incentives.

They have no incentive to increase the value of any property they hold. Like most large businesses, they likely rent the vast majority of their offices so falling rent would actually benefit them. I'm as much of a WFH proponent as the next guy but blaming CRE on the latest return-to-office movement is some crazy conspiracy theory stuff.
