Merger protocol encourages pilots to reach a consensus on SLI as part of a JPWA.
IMHO it would be better if labor could get it's stuff together and then go to management instead of the current situation where management says "we're merging ... you children figure out who gets what corner of the sandbox."
Actually, the opposite is true, merger policy is designed to avoid a DFR suit by not reaching consensus. I call ALPA merger policy, the "blame the arbitrator" policy.
