We agree with those points and sell a tool https://www.uclusion.com that replaces traditional meetings.
Many of your real time meetings and discussions were not the best use of time even in the office but now remote is highlighting the problem as you explain.

A calendar.
Most tools - email, calendar, version control - are asynchronous. For concentrated work, they function best because people can respond at their own pace. However for all remote work, there is a benifit in syncing up with an online meeting. There I found audio only and a shared screen is the most productive and comfortable.
I found no magic tool or any reason to make it any fancier.
