Well being onsite adds value to buyers. If you dont think so, the only way to proce that is by starting your own company with remote-only. Remote devs are cheap so you should be rich very quickly, if they provide the same value as locals.

There are some very big remote-only companies. Canonical and Trello are and they're unicorns. There's also Automaticc, Digital Ocean, Basecamp, etc..

Remote work is a skill like anything else. Your litmus test is a gross over simplification of workplace dynamics.
