Hybrid, even 1 day a week, is still a huge blow to any WFH people who want to WFH for the benefit of living wherever they want. With hybrid, you still need to live within an hour of your office, and living anything more than 1.5 hours out is untenable for most people (which usually puts you living in the middle of nowhere anyways, which isn't the WFH goal), not to mention how most cities' suburbs continue to have 10% YoY housing cost increases.

You should 100% present the economics of the situation to your manager and advocate for your needs. Then it's a conversation between you and the company whether or not you can perform your role in a fully remote capacity, and whether or not they want to compensate you differently to have you in the office. Money tends cut out BS pretty quick.
