Part of the reason we're stuck in that nightmare is that there are so many workaholics out there that for many people, braving the obvious risks and downsides of doing relationship stuff "on company time" is their only path to not dying alone. It would be so much easier if we could all agree to divide the sterile from the personal right down the 5pm line, but there are too many people that have nothing on the other side of 5pm.

I think it's inherently tricky for reasons I tried to explain in an old blog post, recently republished here:
https://witnesstodestruction.blogspot.com/p/the-gray-zone.ht...
It is a self-reinforcing nightmare because it sets women up to assume that if a man is taking a strong interest in her, there is only one reason he could be talking with her. If she then reacts with flirtatious behavior or trying to make sure he understands whether or not she is romantically interested, etc, this can drive off men who would like to make a business connection and don't need some woman threatening their marriage, etc.
