Agreed.
Think that, in any market, for any talent, this would be a ridiculous arrangement for any manager/CEO to propose of a remote hire.
I think the author of this blog probably mentioned that anecdote as a comedic way to highlight the challenges of having product built remotely.
As someone part of a team who advocates for / tries to enable developers to work remotely (and employers to hire remotely), frankly, I'm happy to hear (and get excited by) stories of such arrangements working out for all parties!
