I've been joking with my coworkers that I'm never coming back to the office when this is over... I'm sorta serious but not sure I'd be allowed to. We were already allowed 2 days per week of remote working but 5 seems like a stretch. FWIW I have a dedicated office at home and no kids. Commute is not a factor - I live ~7 miles from the office, it takes 10-15 minutes to get there or get home. There's also an alternative ~7 mile route that is almost entirely bike path I can ride to work on.

Time to start questioning why that rule is in place?

If you're that close to the office then you can easily argue that you can drive in for important meetings and such.
