The list was insulting, immature, and not done in good faith.
Not only is their proposal not likely to even be considered by the panel, it has fostered a sense of anger from the UAL side, as can be witnessed on this forum.
Why? Yet to be seen of course, but I am sure many CAL folks will not be happy with the forth coming UAL proposal ... and let's get one thing clear, there will not be any ill-forgotten gains or "grabs" ... This is a binding arbitration, and 3 neutrals will sort out fact from fiction, and value the equities presented and "award" a list ... Really, it's well well beyond time that folks like you, sir, stop telling the pilots of the "nice little airline" to shut up and color.
