Ask HN: Will “In Person” become the new luxury item?

I've seen many blog posts about how work has permanently gone remote and it's for the better. I have done both remote and in person, and believe hybrid is best. Allow workers to work remotely from time to time by adding it on to their vacation trip or WFH on Monday or Fridays. Human connection is very valuable and good for our health, as we have already seen remote can be negative for our health via zoom fatigue. I've also had more physical injuries working remotely, because I didn't get up and move as often. From a company perspective, costs savings are huge and they may only allow the most valuable employees to keep a physical desk on premises. All that being said, will in person become the new organic and remote become the new Monsanto? Extreme metaphor for comparison, but the comparison is meant to stir up some ideas/emotions.
