Human nature doesn't change in a meek 8 years.

I'm about to re-enter the job market. Pay is the biggest motivator due to COL increases (non-relational to human nature) which affects my ability to provide for my family (more relational). So, you're not wrong... but also far off track from the question asked.
In 8 years a whole generation goes from just out of school/uni to having kids and a mortgage. It definitely makes a huge difference.
Culture can change quickly and I believe that it has.
Are the same number of people seeking fully remote jobs now as were seeking them 8 years ago? Human nature may not change that much, but a job market certainly can.
No, but inequality and cost of living certainly does.
