You have a highly distorted view of remote operation, which seems to be
based on the "rent a shack" of Remote Ham Radio. I do agree that buying
time on someone else's remote station thousands of miles from your own
to fill in DX countries is cheating, even though it doesn't technically
violate rules for the awards. But that's only one small fraction of
remote operation.
What's being discussed here (I think) is setting up one's own station
for remote operation, perhaps from a hotel room while traveling, or one
located in a quiet location that is not bothered by RF noise from
neighbors, and where antennas are not limited by local restrictions.
Setting up a station for remote operation is a real engineering
challenge, especially if there's much antenna switching involved. I have
a great deal of respect for those hams who have successfully done so.
