Mostly because it is a thing that affects them (the employees). The only problems a company faces from RTO is employee dissatisfaction.

Same as saying that you need to argue why a pay raise is good for your company. I mean, it mostly doesn't. All it does is that it makes the employees happier.

Sure, but unlike a requested comp change which is understood to be a employer/employee individual negotiation, RTO tends to be decided on an employer/employees basis. The company doesn’t view it on an individual employee level so individual employee arguments are the wrong approach when selling WFH over a RTO directive.
