So, I see the problem. However, to make such "work stops" ubiquitous, you'd need to seed a large number of them, across country, and you risk that still, people will bump into times, when locating one is an issue. How many such stops would we need? So, not sure if this would be a real solution. Would any of the concept cars (like [this Mercedes](https://youtu.be/IWB4xj7EILg?t=198)), with "summon on demand" function, -- be able to replace such work stops? Or, what about noise-cancellation devices, like noise-cancelling earphones and noise-cancelling speaker (like [hushme](https://youtu.be/pH9jkng9fM8?t=11)), and a privacy screen (like [this one](https://youtu.be/xQ_pkWzy0_o?t=139), using polarized glasses), allowing to convert any cafe with a good table into a silent one, suitable for work? As for the extension of libraries, I'd like to share experience -- in Japan, it is normal to study a lot, and university libraries don't close at night, so you can enter a library at any time. In addition, in Japan, the **Manga Cafes** (see link below your post) are common, and provide pretty much what you're describing. So, it's invented, just not popular in the West. Duh, it makes me want to go back to Japan...
