But if people don't go back to the office, commercial real estate will crash, they'll convert it all into affordable housing, and my curb appeal will lose its sweet, sweet premium value.

Let's not pretend there isn't a micromanaging control issue involved in this, but the core is all about real estate.

I don't know if the affordable part will be particularly accurate.
