I'm not questioning the sense of social distancing, I am simply stating the obvious - that it is not a practical proposition when everyone is back at work. The number of people crowded together on public transport will undo any good of social distancing at the workplace.

That's quite apart from those working in close proximity to their customers such as dentists, hairdressers, etc.
I don't think the new normal will necessarily be the same when there is a return to work. Certainly, I wouldn't rule out everyone wearing face masks and PPE being used by hairdressers, perhaps all 100% appointment. In restaurants and pubs/bars I would expect to see fewer tables to facilitate social distancing. Queuing at the bar may end in favour of table service aided by apps. I think there would be very strict limits on numbers allowed in.
