This assumes that hiring the absolute 1st tier employees gives the respective company a huge economic advantage.
Let me put it this way: in my professional experience lots of companies have no idea how to make use of the potential of excellent employees. So I guess the economic advantage that companies get from hiring the cream of the crop is not that big; thus the leverage that you claim that workers have is, I think, barely given.
if each employer manages to cartel, then yes, employees will be forced to RTO.
However, as soon as one company gives the WFH perk, they'll get the cream of the crop of employees, and therefore, out compete the remaining companies that have to hire the 2nd best.
SO in the end, workers will have choice.
