If they have the budget, then it's not "wouldn't be fair" so much as it is "is currently not fair." On the other hand these developers don't demand more so maybe it is fair. Developers abroad selling themselves short on compensation might be fair, but it does make it hard for people who do earn "SF money" to relocate and keep their high salaries. It doesn't seem irrational to complain about that situation.
