Speeding up the pickup and drop is helpful in cutting down on time, however the Architect (and their office) are the ones to make the actual drawing changes.

I think they've really been helped by the full/partial telecommute, as it's not terrible if you had to go into the city once or twice a week, but if everyone goes back to full-on 5 day offices I think there will be some exodus. 

People had no idea what to do at stop lights, gas pumps didn't work and those that already pumped gas couldn't pay because the attendant couldn't take cash, the lights were out in office buildings and hotels, grocery stores were worried about frozen and refrigerated food going bad, theme parks had people stuck in rides screaming to get off.

Are any one plus an office or all the same?

From my experience from living here in the Bay Area and forced to live 2 hours from my office makes you really think outside of the box.

So don't get frustrated if they don't return your call or aren't in the office.

I had one investment property and one car, so not a whole lot to lose and no intelligent person that was looking to go gold digging would have picked me out of the bunch as a target.

I got all sorts of calls, usually some were just curious, some were angry, every month someone called the police, the BBB and one time even the FBI on me, because the term "cash offer"" seemed suspicious to them - drug money LOL A place officer called me on behalf of a resident asking me to stop mailing them, to which I replied: sure whats their address and he said: he would not give me that information.. 

I think you're misguided on this particular topic, but you seem like a nice and intelligent guy, so thanks for the lively discussion.
