Absolutely this. It’s not just a case of wheeling in some screens as well - multiple screens will often require new or upgraded electrical installations, which then requires additional safety testing. There is then no doubt a need for configuring any networking, which can take time to set up. These alone would not have been required probably 15+ years ago, or at least if they were it was to a significantly lesser extent.
The first corporate set was basically just some cream panels, a desk, some sort of screen for the window view, and a green screen bit for the weather.
The last pre-corporate set, however impressive it looked, was just a massive desk and a lit background, was it even a set or just some lit back cloth I can’t remember
