What is the "current market" that you're talking about?
When a company goes bankrupt they give maybe 2 paychecks. How long until these people get new jobs? Maybe the company gives 4 paychecks? Still, how long is that going to last?
EDIT:
I'm seeing now that nobody on HN has ever been on the receiving end of your company going bankrupt. Carry on.
(Sincerity not snarkiness, and wasn't a downvoter) Do you not have an emergency fund? It was always important, but hopefully 2020 was a wake-up for most people.

Those people would probably find new jobs the same week in the current market
Ah yes. They'll all just probably find new jobs.

The one with all the layoffs and hiring freezes?
The one with very low unemployment, newly popular concept of remote work, and shortage of skilled tech workers.
