It sounds as if it would make a lot more sense for people to agree on 2 days per week to be in the office and work remotely the other three or something along those lines.

That's what they do at the company I work for (I'm at a remote location so I'm 100% remote for them).

I think it's the kind of setup that works best, for some kinds of software projects.

And get up 1.5 hours earlier, two days a week, and get home 1.5 hours later, to sit in their cars?

Moreover: the cadence of business just won't let this happen, or it would be widespread already.

The chance that is coming is that cars drive themselves. As a consequence, part of the business day is going to be spent working during the commute.
