They have a point
Cats have figured out the secret to life way before we did, and as we now know – this secret is to stay away from people. This shouldn’t be a problem for cats, who spent their entire lives getting ready for this day, and this is their moment to shine.
We know that cats can be somewhat self-centered, and so they probably think that what’s good for them is good for us as well, so they raise a valid question: why would you choose to leave the house when you can stay home all day and cuddle with them?
