I didn't say he would, and you focusing on that leads me to think you missed the point, which was to simply provide an example of such malfeasance.

Why is this such a big deal?

It's a potentially big deal because it introduces uncertainty at a bad time, IMO. If you've seen the Nokia vs Apple threads here and considered the spirit of this endeavor you might come to realize people's concerns are natural and completely within reason. They may turn out to be unfounded, but at this point the fear of the unknown reigns for some.

We don't even know what this guy's title is in Nokia, or do we? Would it be equally bad if Nokia would hire software engineers from Apple?

Flawed analogy. No direct relevance.
