Most industries should do remote work as much as possible, specifically the ones that involves sitting in front of a computer all day: less traffic on the road, no commute time, more commercial office real estate that can be converted to housing/shops...

I don't really see the downside to any of this except to micro-managers.

But the micormanagers will find it much harder to justify their existence which is why they're freaking out.
