Usually when you're hiring you're trying to solve a critical business need. A pay raise to a legacy employee doesn't get you more productivity.

  Usually when an employee leaves it means you have to find somebody else anyway, so that point is not valid.

    That's a bit like paying a blackmailer: "You want us to give you a 40% raise just so you won't reduce current productivity?" In terms of productivity it would be rational to pay. But there's a decidedly different quality between paying for an improvement, and paying someone to not make things worse.
