Good answer.

Kind of like asking for higher wages at a grocery store to checkout customers. There are alternatives that even your smile and good performance may not keep you employed.

Remember, that not all jobs can be done at home. Perhaps management should reserve that right. Sometimes facetime with employees and management serves valuable benefits.

I can recall situations in my career where I helped develop critical Multi Million dollar proposals for aircraft engines and support (A couple were in 100's of millions). Potential customers were constantly visiting facilities requiring tours) you needed to be there.

Also gave me exposure to higher management which can lead to promotion.

If the opportunity avails itself to you, good luck and fortune.
