You seem to misunderstand the "current RTO push": it is motivated by bad management and organization and by real estate interests, even if it prominently includes important companies which, thanks to prestige and paychecks, plan to (and probably can) retain good enough staff after losing remote employees.

Remote positions remain, for the foreseeable future, a sign that allows distinguishing mature and/or modern good companies (probably good enough to pay well) from immature and/or decrepit companies (possibly profitable enough to avoid facing problems) with managers who "need" their pigs in the sty.
