The 25-34 age range had the most “Yes” I want to work from home. I wonder if experience made the later years want to not work from home, or what caused that.
But there's no way I'd be able to be as productive as expected under normal circumstances. I'm lucky if I get 4 hours in.
Maybe I could make it work, but I would still prefer to have an office to go to most days.
Maybe what you're describing would work for some people. But to so confidently say it's a blanket solution for everyone and is not actually a problem, is frankly laughable.

Please explain to me in what situation what I described wouldn't apply? When people work in an office, they have to have some form of childcare. Daycare, school, or a caretaker/spouse at home. Obviously those are not available right now in the pandemic, but if we are assessing the viability of WFH typically, then why wouldn't they work just as well as they do when traveling to an office? What is laughable about that line of thinking?
Additionally, 25-34 age range tend to play with internet and games, as opposed to the older ones who go outside more.
Did they? The only question I see broken down by age range is not about wanting to work from home, but "are you more productive working from home?".
The ratio is much stronger pro work-from-home in the 45-64 age ranges.
But my initial guess would be that the older survey participants were more IT affine, but it's hard to judge with the sparse details.
