And I can definitely appreciate people going into the office to get some socialization being important to them.

Right. Second point, sorry to quote you twice...
"Team by Team Basis" unfortunately has some baked in flaws.
1. Not everyone wants to train people, but they should. Thats how young employees get experience.
2. Who makes the 'team by team' basis decision? Because I can tell you who would make those decisions and they're usually the least qualified people to make that call.
3. A lot of young employees gain experience and understanding just by watching the Veterans do it. You can't do that if they're not there.
And then...if you solve a difficult problem, together? You hit the pub and commiserate about it.
Again. Can't do that if you're not there.
