you’re right to call it out as an oddity because i do often struggle with irl very significantly (and of course, the list is intentionally contextually under-specified),
but i think the idea i was going for is that, if circumstances are propitious (big if), there is an unmatched degree of comfort and interactive capacity available, and that communication is less bound by linguistic constraints.
irl is also able to have very drastic immediate influence, like sometimes you just need a hug yknow?
but yea usually i can get tired very quickly from excessive irl exposure, so its ranking is really inflated by its peaks and not so much its perpetual exercise. whereas async low-pressure communication gets ranked high for its comfortability and non-imposition
45min kasey pow-wows 3 times a week are this lovely irl sweet spot hehe
