A fundamental of negotiations (and human relationships) is not wanting to create problems or appear to be a 'trouble-maker'.
In a recent personal situation, it was obvious serious mistakes were being made and it was obvious what the solution was - painful, but certainly better than the alternative. However, we hadn't yet experienced the consequences, and predictably another other party railed at me for making things unnecessarily complicated.
Employees at businesses don't want to be seen as trouble-makers and have their offers rescinded.
A (manipulative) trick to negotiations is to put the other person in the position of being the trouble-maker.
