Mh... I'm a big fan of remote in general, mostly because I choose to live in a nice place, I have a nice home, nice surroundings etc things cannot exists in modern European cities and in cities in general BUT for young, people who can't and shouldn't already have their own family being together of almost the same age means being able to know each others, socialize, better exchange ideas, cementing relations etc. ALL those things can't be really done remotely.
Once we have our own family, earned enough (well, or being rich enough anyway) to have a home, a stable situation than WFH is a godsend (unless you can't afford a good home or have family issues) but before... We are social animals. If we are able to craft a new society where we can have a local social life with enough variety of people around of our cohort like at a physical school and we can separate the studying part from that... Well, ok, I'm interesting in discussing it's design and see if and how can work but so far we do not have anything like that. Surely except for very remote/rural living humans we normally all have neighbors and them are from various age so someone of nearly the same age is likely there but that's typically far from the "high school"/"uni" diversity just in mere numbers, if we add in personal interests and culture terms...
In schooling terms I suggest the Idriss Aberkane "Libérez votre cerveau !" vision where he say a school is like a very rich buffet where when you arrive you are told: "you have to eat anything in a given time at a certain peace, we know you can because we design anything on standard human eating habits, you need to conform". Schools must not be like that, surely their main point is giving a certain set of common knowledge on various topics to from tomorrow mature Citizens, but aside they are also the first step toward the external world outside family. Remain inside, watching the world from remote, is just like watching an XXX movie instead of actually perform, not at all a good thing.
