If you have children it's not as if you can move anywhere even if your job allows it. Moving is traumatic for children and the places you can move to are those with adequate schools.

The benefits of remote working are largely lost on those with children.

I have a child. I live where I live specifically for the school and I don’t want to move.

Remote work dramatically increases my opportunities in my current location.

Right remote work can increase opportunities, but I should have said the mobility advantages are mostly lost on families.
