Micro-passage: The rise of remote work has been lauded as the ultimate liberation for the modern professional. Yet, we must consider the erosion of 'passive collaboration'—the spontaneous exchanges that occur in a shared physical space.

- Scientific and detached, relying on data about productivity.
- Scornful of the professional class's desire for flexibility.
- Uncritically supportive of the liberation it offers employees.
