As we seen before this problem will be answered by economy dynamics:

1st - Facebook believes this is the right way and keep the strategy.
2nd - Good developers at FB won't see any interest in working at FB anymore.
3rd - Emergeing Startups will see the opportunity and use the same payroll as Basecamp to steal FB developers.
4th - Good developers at FB will leave FB and start to work on the emerging startups.
5th - FB Human Resources team will be in crises by their talent retention and engagement metrics and Product team will be getting problems with productivity.
6th - FB will spend some millions in propaganda to say that they are very honest with their payroll and will keep Basecamp strategy.

That's all folks. End of story!
