I agree, honestly I feel a much better solution to this problem would be to extend the same tax advantages that you allude to when talking about a personal company to W2 employees.

Provision a home office? All of those expenses should be tax deductible.

BYOD? You should be able to expense a portion of the costs.

Pay for internet and power? You should be able to deduct a percentage of costs.

Have a work related meal? Tax deductible.

Drive your car to work? You should be able to deduct your mileage or depreciate your vehicle.

Pay for public transit passes to get to work? Tax deductible.

Etc, etc

Since tracking of these is painful, in India all salaried employees are allowed a standard deduction which serve same purpose.
