A bad hires are expensive mistake if you can't get rid of them until some artificial annual event. While I understand onboarding complexities, my experience is that the teams/companies which hasn't create good automated process so new hire can commit their first change within 2-days are big red flag (this was insisted upon by Zuck extensively at Facebook scale). I would also argue that culture of hire/replace team members in agile manner would help enforce this process more naturally and vice versa.

Being able to make a change, and being able to make a change without handholding are two different things.

Places where this happens are normally considered very high stress and competitive.

You're arguing in favour of high turnover - that can't be good neither for the company nor for the employees.
