IMO It's still useful to have an actual human in the loop who is up to date on what a bunch of people are doing, to help coordinate as well as deflect ad hocs

While this sounds intuitive, I've crunched side-by-side with a coworker (literally couch-coop, sshing into pods to solve a production issue), and then having also done the same over Discord with screen sharing, I can confidently say that once you actually embrace remote there is no marked tangible advantage to in person.
Other than it's easier to recruit for a union push on company time because people are constantly jawing, rather than doing their job when in person.
