avoiding video calls is not why they did RTO so not sure how that's relevent. They are just sick of ppl walking their dogs, going to the "dentist" , doing laundry, taking a nap, cooking lunch, going to the post office, going to afternoon spin class and still logging off at 5pm. And these are not even half the things i do on weekly basis.

In my decade+ of working from home I’ve personally only encountered one or two people who fit the offered description. Most people do their work, irrespective of daily schedule.
