Ignoring the education/socialization arguments, I'm surprised to see that no one has mentioned the ostensibly reduced risk of your homeschooled child becoming the victim of a school shooting.
Go on and tell me how statistically the risk is negligible. It makes me feel a bit anxious whenever someone I love is doing _anything_ with a tail risk of instant death that society has somehow normalized, even just driving. I'm not a parent but I imagine that kind of thing could really affect some parents' peace of mind.
