You are correct but here's the kicker: most companies are as blind as newborn kittens when it comes to the costs of hiring and firing people.
So they are shooting themselves in the foot repeatedly but why do you care, you still didn't get hired.
That's partly bluff. Hiring a good candidate is costly.
If they make you an offer, they have already sunk the costs of screening you. Having you exit at the negotiation stage is never free for them. You always have some wiggle room.
