My office building is clearly capacity-planned for cubicles. As we pack it denser and denser, the overload shows up in obvious places: elevators, bathrooms, cafeterias, parking. But I bet we are also overtaxing the air handlers. Might help explain why it feels so much more stifling now.
Attributed this to the richer environment of nature, but it turns out that there is scientific research that finds a correlation between cognitive ability and airflow: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S036013231...
Short answer: yes.
