Maybe but in this case the issues at hand are specifically reserve pilot issues. I'm not saying regular contract negotiations should be centered around reserve pilots QOL above all else, but this issue absolutely should because its reserve issues that are the vast majority of all of this. The company needs concessions otherwise reserve as they know it will basically cease to exist. What needs to come out the other end of this process are reserve QOL improvements to balance out whatever we end up agreeing to, not mining the issue to divert candy to other empires.
