On a small team, if the database role was small, the people I would
have supporting that role would be able to support other functions
as well. From a certain perspective, there is no longer anyone with
that role on the team. The same person may resume or begin some
other role, in which case they would be sitting with the same team
still.

If, on the small team, that person no longer had skillsets that would
allow them to remain a productive member of the team, the right
thing to do would help them transition to a job where they could be
productive. This may involve training, it may involve helping them
look for a new job, but paying someone to not be productive is
damaging to their long term morale and the teams morale.
