Isolation in that context is just form of work. But to focus / be productive on something you need to have a lot of expertise and also knowledge of concrete "domain", eg. knowledge of code base. So you need to learn a lot before you can be productive.

So maybe management is constant and unneeded distraction for proficient workers those days ? Meetings was probably invented to destroy productivity...
Or just average Joe Worker is helpless versus Internet ? And that is the problem called "reality"... Moust peoples are not 1000x programmer that can be left alone for some time and then BOOM some magnificient piece materializes...
Workers just can't be proficient in extended isolation periods. Even management is needed for moust of us... "Work from home" actually is "work less from home". And all that assumes good worker intentions what is naive especially after longer periods of time.
I started forcing myself to start and end the day without the internet, and the very first and last parts without computers/phones entirely. I can't emphasize the benefits enough - to sleep, mood, productivity etc.
