There's a mistake in the post regarding the cost to the company of selecting you (~$24k). They have runner-ups, and they most certainly didn't take down their postings yet, so they will not lose the $24k and start over again, they'll lose a bit more money negotiating with the runner-ups if they're still available, only if the negotiations dragged on forever would the cost keep going up for the company.

If a candidate is unhappy with the offer but accepts it, they are more likely to leave sooner than a candidate who is happy with the offer. Companies I've worked at would rather a bit of negotiation or a flat out "I won't work for what you can offer", than a candidate who leaves after a few months. I've never seen a recruitment pipeline that stopped when they got an acceptable CV in, nevermind risk a lot of money on an offer stage. It keeps going until a contract is signed, and sometimes beyond, exactly to mitigate risk.
