That assumes that regular work doesn't require coordination or can't be helped by knowing there other people they work with and remembering that their coworkers are human.

I've had junior staff self-report that they don't ask as many questions as they should when working even though instant messaging, video calls, and screen sharing tools are there. They also don't always know there may be others they can ask as those relationships take longer to develop full remote.

I've got one coworker who sounds nice in the office but will scream at those working under them on video calls for an extended period of time. They like working remote, but others aren't exactly a fan of it.

I've seen email chains go from coordination to accusation to fighting because there isn't as much room to maneuver and be wrong in email or Slack compared to being in person.

That isn't "team spirit" exactly, but maybe an attempt to create a more collaborative "culture". And coordination is part of the work, even if it doesn't feel like "work".
