Also, most offices buy super terrible toilet paper (like 1 ply, thinner than a tissue). I don’t know if it is to discourage pooping on the company dime or what, but I don’t know if any individuals that would be ok with buying that for their own use. So retooling in more than just roll size/length probably also needed to happen.

It's because it doesn't clog toilets as much. If you stock two ply in an office, people will do unspeakable things with their literal shit, and it's just not good times.
I worked in one place that switched briefly to more home-style twoply, and we very quickly switched back. It wasn't because of the cost. It was because of the poop. Everywhere. All the poop.

In some cases that is result of super super low flow fixtures + bad pressure.
Commercial fixtures need higher pressure than a home fixture, and sometimes the office building can not provide proper pressure, combined with wanting under a gallon of water per flush and well bad things happen
