I agree and if these don't go to XJT the next round will, and in return they'll be parking twice as many 50 seaters.

Disagree? Read UAL's new scope language then look around for who has the most 50's. We at SkyWest are second to XJT with about 90ish, XJT has around 250ish.......? We'll be parking about half but that leaves 150++ 50-seaters that still must be parked and there's no way around their language. The hatchets coming to XJT, SkyWest Inc. will do their best to fight and mitigate but large reductions are inevitable. I ask you, should you get all excited about 50 E-175s if 100 E-135/145s are parked? Only if you’re looking long term.
