I think trying to solve loneliness by combining it with the modern corporate environment is absolutely the wrong approach though.

Get your socialization needs met in an environment where we ask all the people around you to rate your performance and determine whether your salary should continue to be paid.

Yup, agreed. I worked fully remote for a few years and never felt like I lacked social interaction. Apart from being married, I had some hobbies where I'd meet people and was fortunate to have a tight-knit group of friends who I'd meet up with for boardgames every few weeks.

It does take some work to get a solid social life going though.
