That's really what this is all about. My company is not even pretending that RTO has anything to do with productivity or culture. They're not even providing any reasoning. Hell, all my bosses are in different time zones and I have no peers in the office.

It's because the big money has invested in expensive city real estate and if we all buy a house in Montana then it kills their milking model. I mean business model

Same situation here. They made some vague comment about "making connections" in the office but half the people on my team are remote, including managers. It's all bullshit.
