Commute time, stress, and money are a big impact on people’s lives. It’s not so much that everyone wants WFH to never leave their house, they want a 10 minute or less commute, with no random traffic jams and transit breakdowns thrown in. Ideally walking or cycling. People are seeing 10 plus hours of free time per week AND hundred of dollars per month in fuel, car maintenance, transit savings. Of course they don’t want to go back.
If a company wants to attract top talent, all they have to do is offer remote work as a perk now. They'll get their pick of workers. I'd take a small pay cut for guaranteed 100% remote if it came to it.

"Time to commute to the office where we can watch you, and you'll have to wear pants again!" How about no though.
