I find the whole argument moot long-term. As a long-term non-SF tech worker, companies are going to move out the Bay Area whatever they do. Scenario A: they pay less but receive the same quality of workers (and no, Bay Area folks you are not especially talented compared to the national or global pool.) Scenario B: they pay the same, and pull much more senior people many of them could not afford in a higher cost of living environment. Scenarios A and B both rapidly push labor outside of the Bay Area. Frankly, this is irreversible at this point.
