Re: “move somewhere better”; this is a flawed argument I’ve seen repeated a bunch. Some people just
like where they live and don’t want to move to a bigger place. Bigger does not necessarily mean better. Cities provide more options for entertainment, more people to socially interact with, more unique opportunities (by the draw of the city population for these opportunities), etc.
“Move somewhere better” is naive, because where they live isn’t necessarily bad; just may not be conducive to full-time remote work.
