There has been a swing in the business opinion

Depends on where you read that info, it tends to be 50/50 pro/against really.

Yeah it's 50/50 because the executives really don't like it, but the actual data supports remote work being far more efficient. They're working really hard to cook the books to make it look like the opposite to appease the execs but they can only do so much. Give them a few more years to cherry-pick data and bury inconvenient results and they'll be back to the same bullshit that justified productivity destroying (but cheap) choices like hot desking and open plan offices.
