Because the outsourcing threat was a thing before remote working, remote working changes nothing to that.
Employers love to bring this up on the subject of remote working but if they could outsource your work to an Indian paid 10x less, they would have done it already. Those employers are deluded if they think remote work is changing anything here.
If anything it makes outsourcing of global talent even harder for them since now companies are competing globally for the best talent.
