One thing that should certainly be considered is the externalities associated with on-premise work as more roads, transit, infrastructure, emissions, etc, is required. Taxes should probably be lower for companies embracing remote work.


Taxes only in theory pay for those things. In reality lots of borrowing from the future, and inflation, pay for them as well, so proportionally it's not that much.


How exactly does inflation pay for infrastructure?


You print more money, devaluing everyone's savings, and you use the wealth transferred to pay back Macquarie.
