That's exactly what's happening (in the linked story).
I think the drama comes because there's a cost to quitting your job and finding a new one. It's annoying to say the least, and if the only reason you have to do it is because the company is making what will undoubtedly be seen in a few years as a huge, obvious, frankly stupid mistake about their remote work policy, it rises to the level of a pain in the ass worth arguing about.
