Relocation vs. Rejection

If there were two candidates that got an opportunity at a FAANG company. But one lived on the east coast while the other lived in the same area of the FAANG on the west coast. Could the company decide that because they dont want to give a relocation bonus they would just reject the person on the east coast? Or does FAANG companies have a lot of money so they dont care about spending some money on good candidates?

HC at Google does not factor in location or salary.

This is FAANG we're talking about, not some $200k/year revenue startup with 3 employees.

Relocation cost is insignificant next to the value if a good hire.
