The hiring process isn't just about the candidates you make end up hiring. Everyone that comes in contact with it is going to form an impression of your company--positive or negative.
Clearly there's some kinds of feedback that is likely to leave a negative impression (see those that threatened violence!) but on the hand putting someone through days and days of interviews and then saying "we didn't feel a spark" also is going to leave a negative impression.
The rare interviews where I received concrete actionable feedback afterwords, even though it still stung I have a more positive impression than those where I got some pabulum (much less the ones that ghosted me).
