More legs = less available duty = need more pilots to fly the allotted flying. They will attempt to mix them in the most efficient way to reduce the number of pilots they have to have on the roster.
FTDT really changes the game here. Before FTDT I would agree 100%.
Remember the time we tried to operate FAs on different schedules? We all had a lot of fun!
