the COST to a company that loses brainpower shows up in either added costs to obtain replacements and to train them or in revenue losses when it can't keep up with the technological curve ... all of which directly affect the price of the stock at some point. When the options are exercised the EPS is diluted to the extent that there are new shares outstanding but the company does receive the $ for the exercise price. I would much prefer to see that kind of dilution than to have options never exercised because they're worthless; companies attract the best talent they can get that way vs high salaries as the increasing share value is worth more to the employee who works hard to make that happen.
