Yes it is a regional and I understand the regional model. Every year, regardless of years of service, people in management positions get a percentage raise. I am not asking for their pay or their percentage, since I'm not doing their work (whatever "work" that might be).

All I am saying is that a lot of us have been sitting right seat for a while and might continue to do so. If that is the case, bump the FO longevity up anywhere between 2-5% till 10 years. I'm sure that the company can afford that since the pay raises for management is usually more every year. Not only will this benefit us if we don't upgrade, this will also help those that are below us.
