If you read AMR's TA provisions (that also are in the 1113), you'll note they ensure no group 1 aircraft (less than 81-seats) pay rate increases can be tied to larger group aircraft. Additionally, G1 aircraft use FAR limits in scheduling.
Clearly, they've considered this likely scenario and have inserted some protections against its negative consequences.
