So if they are any good, someone should stand up and say, we should pay this person what they want, if they want to work remote and there are no specific restrictions placed upon them by their job requirements; let them. Keep them. That must not be happening in those cases though or they wouldn't be jumping, that's the point of the article.
If you try to change jobs every 2 years and are not great at your current position, you'll likely be sorely disappointed.
As you say Joe Dev wasn't good enough at their job for anyone to work to keep them, but somehow they have to be excellent to land a job somewhere else every 2 years. My point is Joe Dev is excellent at something, but that is interviewing. It says nothing about his actual job skills except that they aren't so great as to have a company bend over backwards to keep him.
