Exactly this. The sudden all-remote arrangement last year wrecked my first big summer internship in every possible way. I take responsibility for a good deal of how it affected me emotionally and my subsequent lack of productivity. However, I also wasn't given the physical hardware lab projects I signed up for or any meaningful support. I felt deeply disconnected and unengaged, but pressured to pretend everything was okay.
At this point in my life, I'm one of those people who is screaming to get out of the house. It's a place of comfort to me for sure, but also distraction and stagnation. Couple this great start to my career with having a critical third of college plus youth in general being ripped from me, I think its pretty clear why I am against pure WFH. People in different situations and stages with different needs will want different arrangements, but I am not going to apply for remote positions as a new grad.
