shinerbock,
I see the point you're making, but consider this scenario. Say , you run shinverbock, inc. and you're making a hiring decision between Letravious Jones and Larry Jones. Both are reasonably strong candidates, however Letravious grades out slighty higher than Larry.

Conventional thinking, as you see it, suggests you would hire Larry. Do you do it, and if, so, do you have any recriminations about the fact that Letravious could go to a competitor and come back to haunt. Or do you hire Letravious?

curious as to your thinking.
