Section 1:
Scope provisions of the PWA provide the framework for Delta pilot careers. These provisions provide critical job security protections and enhance career progression. To strengthen that framework, the Delta pilots propose the following improvements:


  • Establish appropriate production balance protections in all future JVs
  • Improve protections for domestic and international codeshare
    • Improve balance of flying between Delta and DCI
    • Change the definition of “permitted aircraft type” to include propeller and geared turbo-fan aircraft
    • Add new language to restrict the use of permitted and non-permitted aircraft within holding companies
You can read the rest in the opener, but what you assert above ("when it comes to scope we deviate from that") isn't correct.

Please tell me you can see why there is significant nervousness among the ranks in regard to the extreme vagueness of the language present in what you quoted.
