Open Office was a cesspool of disease, even before covid it was problematic:

Studies have found that that those who work in open offices are more likely to take short term sick leave or a sick day. Those employees might be using 62% more of their sick days due to the environment. Employees with this office layout are also more prone to headaches and respiratory problems due to weakened immune systems.

Hated to use MS Word where they had that.
