The issue is the Pinnacle merger reps changing ALL the certified dates instead of waiting for Bloch to decide or negotiating. Ill bet if Pinnacle didnt propose the staple job the other two sides would have been more flexible. The loss of two months isn't nearly as bad as 16 years. Lets not forget that.
You make a very important point here.

If 9E MEC had not taken a stance of non-negotiation, they would not have ticked-off the smartest guy in the room (and I'm not talking about Bloch)

Thank god he is on my team is all I have to say.
