The problem now is that we don't have enough jobs for the people who are good at working from home due to an antiquated view on jobs and productivity.
In the future, we'll have way more jobs for these people as companies see the advantages in cost when hiring someone who will be happy to make less money and produce more because they a)don't need to live in the bay area, b)don't need to commute and c)don't get distracted all the time.
This said, I find it very unlikely that software office jobs will disappear or even reduce drastically. I'm predicting a 30% reduction in full-office jobs, not a 90% reduction. Despite all of the excitement for future WFH opportunities, remember old habits die hard.
