No. Any frustration like this only serves to push all employees a bit.
And the Dead Sea Effect reminds us that the people who leave first will be those who get jobs elsewhere first. These are the most employable, and thus the most capable, and thus probably your best employees.
RTO and other stupid patterns won't push out the most desperate; they'll push out the most valuable. And then the most valuable of what's left. And so on.
Managers who choose pride over effectiveness need to be unemployed.
