Perhaps if you read it as "Why I Won't RELOCATE to Work for Your Startup" it doesn't come off quite as pompous.
Is it any less pompous to say: "I would like to hire you, but you have to leave where you live and everyone you know and come to me?"
If you had gone in with the mind set, "I want to work locally, and relocating isn't something that works for me." I can respect that, but when you say I wont locate for YOU, comes off as saying, hey I make the decisions not you. Or an attention grabbing title for a post.
For a full time employee, remote work is like a long distance relationship, more often than not, they just do not work. Heck contract remote work is already difficult as is.
