Remote work is cheaper and more productive for many workplaces and the numbers prove it.
Remote work is still here to stay, not because anyone gives a rat's ass what the employee wants, but because it just makes sense.

"The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent"
Sure businesses are supposed to be cruel uncaring bean counting machines. But they're corrupted by all these damn apes that make all the decisions. There's no law of economics that that's that humans have to act in a perfectly rational self interest. It's an assumption that many economic theories make, for various reasons but it's far from inviolable.
But there is a rational reason for it. It reduces risk and makes output more predictable. If you have a 10x developer who is actually producing 10x, how do you plan for that? What if he leaves? If you reduce him to 2x or so, it’s much more likely he can be replaced.
