To be honest, this happens with locals too.

often companies rather hire 3 'available ones' instead of paying 3x for a good one that would add immeasurably more value over the other 3 combined.

It's again a corollary of the mythical man-month attitude. It looks like managers really can't understand that often, at least in software development, less is more.
