I think you've crossed over into the unnecessarily absurd. When I got my offer and contract to sign which stated remote work I made damn sure it was in the contract along with compensation, holidays, sick leave etc. If any of these differed from the job advert, interview discussions etc then I'd be bouncing it back to the employer to correct. These are not "pretty hard standard[s] to hold" a potential employer to.
