You are correct. The SLI should not matter. But apparently to your MEC it does...i.e. LOA25. Bottom line is that if your side was mothballing 85 757's in the coming year, offering LOA's, shrinking the F/A ranks and the VP of Flt Ops was making comments about "harvesting" your flying, you too might be inclined to wrap up this ISL ASAP. But, your CAL, not UAL....so, either way everything will be ok for you.
