Hard disagree. That not only distracts that person, but also the six+ sitting around them. Most questions are fine as a chat message. We found people starting asking more questions to colleagues when Covid wfh started because they were afraid to earlier, communication actually improved.
The office is imo necessary for quite some things (onboarding new people, coaching juniors, people without a good place to work at hone, people who like the social aspect of the office) but walking up to someone for a quick question isn't it.
