The article doesn’t mention the bizarre ritual spacing and rearrangement in elevators.

1 person: back center.

2 people: each moves to back corner.

3 people: both back corners, center front.

4 people: each corner.

5 people: each corner plus center.

5+: automatic rearrangement, but always maintaining equal distance among all parties (unless they’re together).
