People are social primates, alphas like access to nonverbal cues for reading and control of their supposed underlings. Same reasons for concentrations in big cities: interaction density is higher for business dinners while underlings are not too far away. Net ops are more like hunter-gatherers than anything, so there's considerable culture clash.
