Burke's overpay by a few dollars is mostly irrelevant, because it's so tiny of an overpay. He's making barely over the minimum.
Waiving him doesn't erase his salary, you still pay him, and then you also pay for a replacement. If you have someone who wants Burke in trade, and you have another "just in case" offense-creator who wants to come sign for the minimum, that saves a sliver, but it's a lot of work to get there without going backwards.
