I’ve found the high concentration of opportunities in the Bay Area to be very valuable, enough so to relocate once and take full advantage for half my career. Spreading them thinly around the entire country (or the world!) will add a lot of friction and leave more people stuck in poor fits.
If everyone goes fully remote permanently, this isn’t an issue, but I don’t think a temporary pandemic will lead to that.

Now it looks like this move towards remote will mean that I won't have to sacrifice all the interesting jobs for the sake of lifestyle choices. Seems like a win to me, at least.
