The overwhelming evidence in word and deed from management points that direction. Some are trying to raise the alert flag and what that means to Delta pilots. Some (like you) get out the party hats no matter what Delta seems to be doing. Calling everything Delta does a victory (for them and their pilots) makes you lose credibility. That's what others are saying about you here. You just aren't able to comprehend it.
I haven't seen anything that says we are parking more planes then we are replacing. That's your assumption. Show me where management has stated that. What I have seen stated and presented by management is that the Mainline fleet will be growing. I'll put in big letters for you. Management has officially stated the MAINLINE FLEET WILL BE GROWING.
I'm not sure why that's so difficult to understand.

Nope, but they tailored the call into clips and put print on the screen to spin it. That was pretty obvious.
