YC always required teams to move to the bay to maximize their success chances. But if almost everyone in tech is remote, then they aren’t losing ground compared to other companies working remote. It’s similar to saying “you have to be on site if you want to get promoted faster” when almost everyone is on site and you are the only remote person. When everyone is remote, the equation changes.

I believe it is primarily to maximize your immersion and focus on your startup. If this is true remote will definitely not work as well.

This is not true now, let alone in the next 6-12 months.
