I think libraries vary a lot. Your library sounds lovely. My local ones are half way between what you are describing and the quieter places others are describing. But they are actively trying to be a third place.
I think your point is "some libraries are third places". And that point would hit harder if you gave folks grace. Don't assume they are speaking from ignorance but invite them to check out libraries if they haven't. I dunno.
