I'm not currently looking for a job, but I have stock answers saved over the years that I combine and tweak for these sort of essay-based, open-ended questions. I might spend an hour composing and editing an application for a senior position.
I don't see it as a massive burden, rather an opportunity to share my viewpoints & expectations and see if there's enough common ground to investigate further.
My only complaint is when you invest this effort and then the company uses some automated BS to immediately filter out your application; calling you out Plural Sight - how hard would it be to indicate "remote US-only" on the posting?
