It's difficult to "poach" people who are happy and well compensated. No one put a gun the these employee's heads.

I love Apple products, but what did they expect to happen when they colluded with other industry heavy-weights to suppress developer wages? This was bound to happen sooner or later.

How could you confirm it's not based on their skills? You make it sound like Tesla has a personal grudge and isn't just seeking top tier talent.
