I wish I was blessed with your mental filters for blocking out distractions. Open office plans drive me absolutely bonkers.

I am wondering if you have ever worked in an open office layout for more than 3 months.

He doesn't do any "work". I was commenting on the background set up.

Curious, why? Also, do you mean to suggest that they staged a working area so that he could seem like a cool "desk with the rest" CEO on the internet?

That sounds a bit too personality cult to be true, to be honest. He's some companies CEO, not Kim Jong-un.

My assumption was simply that he's on the move a lot, and doesn't spend that much time at his desk to make it work good for him. Some of us need a perfect working spot, some others just don't care enough.
