Not really if there are BILs or other non-mehrams living there (which obviously there are often are)..

There isn’t a single non-desi scholar who promotes living with inlaws whilst living separate is actively encouraged by practically ALL of them (unless MIL or FIL are sick and/or lonely and even then there are conditions regarding the amount of space and privacy she is entitled to)..

Cool. My workplace is full of non- mehrams, should I quit working and stay locked in my house?

If there are BIL and non mehrams at home, women would Islamically require to stay modest outside of their bedroom walls, that is if her husband cannot get her a seperate house. For women with severe phobia of na-mehrams, its best to marry the chap that made the deal providing her a seperate house.

Islam or those scholars for that matter also ‘encourage’ gazillions of other things, lets not pretend we their word on such matters becomes a mark in stone and its wholeheartedly follwed. Whatever I’ve seen of Pakistan, I can easily say we are influenced a lot by our culture than religion. Since a lot of people here would generally classify themselves as secularists, its funny to see them suddenly become nosy pesudo Islamists on handful of issues.
