At least in the US, there has been moaning for a decade going on two about how hard it is to hire qualified people at current salaries in STEM. If you fire all the people who don’t like WFH backfilling them is not going to be easy, and even if you did that’s probably a good chunk of tribal knowledge lost.

It will be easy if they hire people for those salaries from anywhere in the world. The only reason it's hard now is because they require them to live in SV which not everyone can do.

Some of the people who like offices undoubtedly live and work outside Silicon Valley...?

So? Those people still won't be available, but plenty more will be.
