I think the reality is that "leaders" know this already, but a lot of them just don't care.

They want their castle populated with little laboring serfs they can see running around. Remote work is something that used to be the realm of those leaders, who came in once a week in between thousand-dollar business lunches they flew first class to, and they'll be damned if the peons get even one of their 'special privileges '.

Next they'll be expecting to be compensated for traveling for work, and commuting will be classified as traveling for work! What a crock, having to pay people for the things the company demands they do!
