Wasted is a relative term since the remaining shareholders see the percentage of the company they own increase and the stock price dropping makes it cheaper to buy more shares thus continuing to drive up the percentage of the company owned by the remaining shareholders

You missed a step. if the price goes down, the current share holders lost money, regardless of how big a percentage of the company they own in stock is.
