The question is whether Seth's work is undervalued or if your work is overvalued.

If Seth was making $75k, how much you're make is irrelevant to whether that's the number that he was looking for for his skillset.

You could consider the company overvaluing your work a bad signal, but I don't get how that translates to Seth should make even more money than you (Company's made one bad judgement, so should now make two bad judgements?)

EDIT: I understand the sentiment though. It's kind of childish ("why does he get more pasta than me??") but I think most humans are affected with it. I think the feeling is one of wanting to be worth more than others... I have a hard time justifying it on a moral level.
