Yet i did hear it repeatedly as a suggestion from other IEF'er that had to atend remotely even before covid.

I think that we have to be careful not to dumb down the in-person experience so that it simply replicates that of remote participants.  If it merely replicates remote attendance then you need to consider whether it is worthwhile people spending additional money to travel to a location in order to attend the meeting if they can have the same functionality and basic experience whilst attending remotely.
