For example, if you lived in Mountain View in walking distance of Google, would you turn down an offer from Facebook because your home in Mountain View is no longer walking distance to Facebook HQ?
Also, life situations. If your partner has a job at a school or hospital that requires physical presence whose commute do you prioritize?
Making jobs that can be remote, remote gives workers massive flexibility in work arrangements with partners as well as being able to change jobs.
I read a theory that this is part of the reason why people are migrating to metro areas. Metro areas are more likely to have industries for both spouses careers as opposed to just one. Enabling fully remote for remote eligible roles makes it possible for couples to migrate to areas that only support one of their in-person careers.
