Also - Everyone WFH is great now, but once team turnover kicks in, all company culture gets lost.
I think this is very much company-dependant. We've hired 3 new people in the past 2/3 months (all done via video calls with the exception of supplying a laptop upon starting) and there isn't a noticeable difference in terms of the new starts integrating with the rest of the team versus pre-WFH. We have daily catchups at the start of the day and a social chat once a week so that likely helps a good deal.

It is. But I am trying to look beyond my own experience. Working in tech makes this more flexible, but not all companies are like that.

Yeah, tbf we are the same. We have had about 6 new starters and all have integrated well with the aid of daily stand ups and video calls.
There is however a real appetitive to get back into the office for some IRL FaceTime.
I actually have come to hate working from home as the norm, hope we work out some kind of balance that suites me (2-3 days in the office).

Yeah. I wonder how long it will be before a trip/fall at home while WFH then becomes a company liability. I don't think this has been thought through carefully and once the insurance companies start to pay attention, I think things will change rapidly.

It will pendulum back to more time of the office one way or the other.
