It does, but the slant always seems to be towards selling it as a better option. I agree remote-management doesn't work. But even here on HN, very rare to see a pro-"keep it" stance on anything. Silicon Valley seems obsessed with "get rich" outcomes.
It depends on the business, the persons involved and it depends on your future plans. If you see it as 'leveling up' then selling it is the best way forward, if you want a nice business where you call the shots that you grow at your own pace then keeping it would seem to be the best course. But that's a totally different discussion and a much more complex one.
I would say that, if you're looking to try and "remote-control" your business, then it's probably a far better option for you to sell it than to keep it.
