I don't think that 'should' is the best lens through which to view this. The better question is, would offsite talent (at or above the quality of onsite talent) be willing to do the job for less. I would hazard a yes to that because of the drastic difference in savings rate in low CoL areas. E.g. would be willing to make 30% less to live in a CoL area where your CoL is 40% less? If the delta in CoL exceeds the delta in pay change, I bet this takes off.
