Yeah i joked with my team the next step will be asynchronous teams where teams could be spread over US and EU etc.
I love my solo lunchbreak walk just to empty my head or just think instead of having to talk or interact with team members.

International companies have been doing this for decades.
Until I retired at the end of 2017 I had worked for over twenty years in a team which had developers and domain experts in the following countries: Norway, UK, Sweden, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Turkey, USA (several states), Canada, Poland.
Occasional collaboration is different from day to day, and I'm sure that's why GP emphasised 'asynchronous' - doing it with your close colleagues requires a shift in how you work, async written communication not chats, PR review not pairing, etc.
