As a manager I can tell you having a team member leave is not a “get out jail free card.”

First you will have to explain why X person is leaving, and it will generally be considered your fault.

Second if your team isn’t resistant enough to absorb the impact of one team member leaving, this will also be scrutinized and viewed negatively.

Managers are responsible for their team’s performance and not one individual
