Oh I agree completely.
Up front info is worth gold. If I know it is one of the scenarios you mentioned, or haggling is expected, game on!
I am fine with a haggle. Lots of ways to see value. Great discussion!
In your narrow scenario, I would compute needs plus reasonable wants, then add on compensation for any draconian policy and drop a number. Hit or miss. Not my problem, unless it is.
If it is my problem? Get a deal, keep life funded and look for better as ones risk and cost profile permits.
One qualifier is whether the position has a sales or biz dev component. Deffo haggle. Expected. There is a need to sell too, so make it sizzle.
