I propagate it for game theory reasons. If people can be counteroffered easily there is no incentive for employers to give raises of their own accord, they can just wait until you have another offer in hand.

This. It's not about losing the job, it's about you just showed they don't need to offer raises to keep you.

Wouldn’t employers be incentivized to give raises as soon as it was more cost efficient than counter offers?
