Sure, if you are only using thinking shortsighted. I doubt they consider what effect remote has on retention and company reputation and how those factors could affect productivity.

I'd assume remote work greatly lowers retention. People are way less "attached" to their company when working remotely.

Counterpoint to that: if you can work remotely you won’t leave for a company that requires your butt to be in a seat in the office.
