Not exactly. You're focusing in on one component and leaving out the rest (staffing formula, extra X-day, early retirement), oh and the block hour ratio.
With the TA and all other things being equal there will be 30-40 additional mainine aircraft on board at a minimum. If there are fewer than that he would have been displaced anyway under our current agreement. He would also have no size restrictions on DCI and less furlough protection in large RJ seat removal in that scenario.
So he gets better upside and better downside. But you can't get past 70, so it doesn't matter to you.
