It's only inertia that makes 'remote' not default in this technological age. Of course some prefer the office (some of whom from their own inertia), some jobs genuinely need to be or benefit from being done in a shared office space, but for the absolute vast majority of roles the office was always about needing to pass paper documents around, or needing expensive and fixed equipment that is a telephone line or computer.
