As someone who was over-employed in '21-'22, I think RTO is mainly there to prevent employees from making too much money. It's not that they're worried about loss in productivity as much as their loss of leverage against the employees. The threat of making someone homeless is a benefit they enjoy. Having multiple jobs removes that threat and empowers employees to push back and be assertive. Which is the real threat to profits.
