One in-person day costs a nearby candidate about 3 days, and a more remote candidate anything from a week to a couple of months depending mostly on where you are. And yeah, it also costs some money that maybe you will reimburse.

It doesn't cost you much, that's for sure. But if it's for a full-remote position, it's absolutely not a "the cost is nothing" situation and the candidate refusing it for some random company in a random stage of the interview is absolutely reasonable.
