If you're an employer: Why have you never considered going remote (that is if your team can work remotely)? (alien.top)

Please, I'm just genuinely curious.

But I'll like to help anyone wanting to answer by categorizing the reasons into like 4: You can choose any, or come up with your own reasons.

You believe remote work is just a trend, and will die soon
You think it's just a bubble waiting to burst
You think remote work will never be successful
You believe remote work is still in its infancy/ (it's early) and you don't want to jump on the train just yet
You're just uncertain about the whole remote work thing

I'm thinking of using your reasons to work on a bigger content (ebook) for my long piece here.

Not an employer but definitely can say that remote work will be here to stay. Even doubling an employee's salary may not sway him enough to abandon working from a convenient, remote location.

I was offered 50k more for a non-remote position. An almost 50% bump. I turned it down. No way I’m giving up a comfortable work life balance for profit.

That depends on the person. I'm sure there can be people who would accept it.
