Not to peek behind the curtain, but it's pretty difficult to hold down 2 jobs when you need to physically be in the office 2 days a week. Which, if my anecdotal evidence in my circle is to be believed, that was definitely happening during the pandemic.

I have seen companies who have mandated "You _will_ be on video when you're on Zoom calls", which I think is much to the same end, in varying ways (are you working from another office, are you multitasking meetings, etc).

I wonder if there would be a massive boost in productivity if everybody was doing mandatory pair programming.

Companies need to give up on this whole "we own your time" thing. Work product should be all that matters. If an employee has two or three jobs, but is able to get their work done with the quality expected of them, that's all that should matter.
(Certainly there are exceptions; working for two competitors at the same time is not ok for hopefully obvious reasons.)
