Why a studio? If you WFH you can choose anywhere in the world with the space.

Lots of people have rent terms or leases, which can’t be changed amidst corona. Especially without knowing what post COVID life will look like.

Moreover, some people like being in the heart of the city and as such, can only afford a studio.

I re-upped my lease just after WFH and they didn't raise the rent. So I'm not going anywhere and it seems like we'll be back to normal-er by the time it comes up again.

Why do people live far from big cities or in rural areas? With a cushy enough job you could downsize to a studio right by work.

People have different preferences on where they want to live. I don't really see how shaming one choice is supposed to be better than shaming another.
