Those countries could keep their own talent through economic policy (i.e. fuck you pay me)

That they don’t is entirely their own fault and they deserve to be brain drained. “Talent” are people with agency and not possessions subservient to national interests.

Sure, and now they don’t need to keep their talent through economic policy. The USA is being kind enough to force them to stay in Europe/Asia :)

no, there are already runoff places that will brain drain the rest. there will be no "great repatriation". it's not just "The US" and "Home", there is an ease of immigration, quality of life, and success potential gradient.

Nobody was talking about repatriation.
