I’m going to let my inner introvert (misanthrope?) speak for a moment, and honestly this sounds like a nightmare (with all respect)…
I can’t imagine paying money to spend time with a stranger!
It’s hard enough interacting with people in the normal course of the day, but then to intentionally put yourself in a forced interaction that you pay for?
I totally agree with all the arguments/benefits in the post, but some of us enjoy our anti-social quiet time :)
