I don't see how that would be a good thing for you.
How many guys senior enough to bid WB pay in a combined 75/76 bidpack would bid a 75 line? Probably not enough to make a guy currently sitting relatively senior in the 75 junior. Again, that is assuming most guys are chasing the buck.
The current 75 lines won't go away with a combined 75/76 bidpack. I'm not seeing a rush by too many senior guys to move to the 75 to fly them.
