You don't deserve to be downvoted for your reasoned opinion. I do really disagree with you, though, and think that people will look on the pre-pandemic times with a similar eye to the 1500s. Just backwards.

There are certainly jobs that will always be in person--healthcare could be a good example. Most probably don't need them for any reason at all. The real question is deciding which is which.
