Probably nothing to do with that. More related to consumer/producer. If you're a consumer, you're a drone no matter your lifestyle. If you are a creator you can be creative holed up indoors all your life.
OK but to my point if you are a drone consumer as you say where do you spend most of your time? Indoors consuming!
I agree, regarding TV and internet. But keep it mind, the opposite is also possible. I have friends who are extremely outgoing. But all their outgoing is tied to consumption. Adventure parks, movies, restaurants, events, concerts, swimming pools, vacation etc etc.
Where I also have friends who practically hole themselves up in their home-shop creating amazing things of crafting, engineering and art.
