People who love remote work usually have families. Time is a very limited resource when you have kids. Commuting and socializing with coworkers at lunch or at happy hours gets deprioritized.

There are also a lot of people who just want to avoid the commute. With all its loss of time, cognitive load, wear & tear included. Even the non-introvert people do.
