I think I get it, the gist of it anyways. I understood it as faring better in a more formal, but still being a social setting, e.g.: a mountaineering club meeting once a week, and occasionally goes up on group hikes. It’s way easier to connect with someone in that situation, since there’s already some common ground to stand on. It is a lot easier compared to trying to connect with a neighbor you know next to nothing about, much less a common ground.

Yeah. I want to say that everyone has enough in common to get along and be friends but that doesn’t seem to be the case in practice :/
And even if we do have things in common, unfortunately, at times it is not enough to build a friendship on.
