I disagree, having experienced both.
Cubicles suck, but an "open" floor plan meant less privacy and constant panopticon-like intrusions at all times, including extra noise and distractions from everyone else around me.
Open plans are definitely way less inclusive of people with more sensitive senses for sure
I wonder if companies started adapting open floor plans partially to filter out people who can't thrive in them
I.e. people on the spectrum and less social people
Quite possible.
Some people do fine with constant annoying little distractions at all times. Those are the kind of people that corporate culture wants to have around because it all amounts to annoying little distractions and seeking validation for them.
