Commercial leases are not always a 1 year lease though, like an apartment. They could be in a 10 year lease so I think it's still valid a lot of times. Obviously there are also additional factors but some companies are still stuck paying for a building they can't use.

Sunk cost fallacy. This is not difficult to grasp. The money is gone regardless of whether people are in the building.
