Scrolling through your phone is not exactly quality time. In general the time spent on any form of commuting is a net cost to be minimized.

Depends on what you're doing. I frequently use my rides to go through email.

Which you can also do during any of the time you don't spend commuting, without having to do it on a noisy train car.

At the limit the optimal commute is work from home.

I do work from home, actually. Regardless, I still have places to be at times that are not my house.
