> Coworking spaces might help with socialization and some people need it but I am not sure how that benefits who you work for.

because, as someone else i replied to in the thread points out, miserable employees perform worse.

I am curious, do believe that a company or an employee is responsible for paying for a ersatz "coworking space" (ersatz, in that the employer did not choose that as a place for their employees to work)?

I get that. I said as much. Though suggesting employers should have no say in where their employees work on generally work protected by intellectual property law is tricky. If they have an office, usually that is where they want you to work if the goal is an office setting. Some companies do not and rent out coworking space. Different.
