Doesn't make sense to my premise.
Comair's demise started well before 2012. In fact, how many times did they have to take paycuts of some sort? Wasn't it 3 separate times? And each time, their fleet shrunk. The point is 62 million is just pocket change when it comes to Delta, and when it comes to letting go of 140 CRJ2s several years earlier, it's actually a money-saver.
