Pilots are focused like tunnel vision on jet PIC. Some guys have 5, some have 500, some have 5000. If this was all that the airlines cared about, the effects would be obvious and known. If you are the one that has sacrificed everything to get 5000 without branching out, bringing in experience from other areas, improving your education (and experience), and so on, you can expect more difficulty in getting hired, despite having "x" amount of turbine PIC. HR groups do not have tunnel-vision anywhere near this bad. Otherwise, they wouldn't hire military pilots that have so many fewer hours. I know you said "all other things being equal", but suppose for a few seconds that they are not, and you are a check airman for a turboprop vs. someone that became a "jet FO" at all costs, or any one of many scenarios that would play out in your favor.
