The main reason I can think of is the companies want to justify the multibillion dollar office investments. And also the head honchos who have houses in Palo Alto and Los Altos don’t want their property values to decline

Haha, yeah I completely forgot about the housing values. I was looking at real estate in the Bay Area a few years ago when colleagues were trying to get me to move out there. I immediately noped out, and said those prices need to have a massive crash and come back to Earth before I consider something like that.
