The issue is they require their co-workers to do something they don't want to do. It's not a purely individualized desire.

  Agreed. As long as we’re also clear that this applies to anyone who wants to work at a fully remote company. And as long as we’re clear that there’s nothing wrong with this.

    I don't follow, fully remote employees don't care how their coworkers are working by and large so your point is lost on me.

      The issue you’re missing is that for many people who prefer office work is that they prefer in-office work with other people in that office, not being in an office while a bunch of people are remote. The remote workers’ cry of “We can work at home and you can work in the office” or “I don’t care where you work” is forcing the in-office coworker to do something they don’t want to do — work in an office with people who aren’t there. Getting the exact work environment you desire isn’t a guarantee at work. And again, this is absolutely fine. It’s fine to love remote work and it’s fine to hate it. It’s fine for a business to make everybody come into the office, it’s fine for a business to make everyone work at home, and it’s fine to go hybrid or whatever.
