I get the sense that the large corporations taking an authoritarian stance toward RTO is not happening because they have data showing that RTO is the most efficient way to operate. If they had the data, they'd pound on the data rather than pounding on the table.
Instead I suspect that there's immense political pressure to bring warm bodies to offices because the waste of resources is load bearing for the macro economy. It's a paradox of thrift situation: if we actually become efficient then a lot of people are going to need to take a substantial writedown. These people aren't going to take that writedown without putting up a fight.
