But if I work Bouvet using this remote, can I really claim

DXCC rules say that you can count a QSO made from any STATION location
(that is, where RF is transmitted and received,) anywhere in the lower
48 states.
It would seem exceptionally unfair. Doesn't
ARRL have a rule for as how far you can move from place to place and still
claim accumulated DXCC credits?
Yep.
I find this highly troubling.
Me too. When I moved from Chicago to NorCal 12 years ago I started over
with DXCC. There's a guy who takes pride in being at/near the top of
DXCC on 160M, but he started in CO, then moved to NC. I strongly
approve of operating remotely from a station that is close to you,
especially if you built the station! I view with contempt those who
would use remote operation of a station much much closer to DX than
their own, or even rent that station and travel to it, and count QSOs
made from that station for DXCC.
