While there are a few that work better in an office, the overwhelming majority work better at home. Why should we force everyone to suffer for the handful of folks who can't self-motivate at home? We don't bend over backwards to cater to people who say, have auditory issues that make working in a crowded open-plan office debilitating. We tell those folks to go die in a fire if they can't handle an office environment. Plenty of people can't work in an office, but that was never been seen as an argument to get rid of offices.
