I'm done arguing with you after that statement. You obviously don't understand this.
What don't I understand? At the office, an employee likely has a gigabit or 10gigabit connection to the local server. Why shouldn't a remote employee have similar access to the server at the office?

That's not accurate. The employees have a 1Gbps pipe coming into the building from the ISP that they ALL share along with servers, phones, VPN, etc. No one at any time will have a full Gbps connection, unless they happen to be the only one there and no other equipment is up and on the network and no devices between the PC and the ISP throttle it.
Not to mention some Cisco devices in production still have 100Mbps ports so if your pc is in the office with 1Gbps coming in, 100Mbps to the switch and a computer NIC of 1Gbps (which some older NICs are still 100Mbps max) that person is throttled to 100Mbps and I assure you never uses that on normal business.
I've seen some companies with offices of 20 people never get above 300Mbps total bandwith usage during PEAK times.
So 20 people share 300Mbps why does 1 need 1Gbps at home?
