Looking at the award, it appears there were some categories that were backfilled well above the published min staffing numbers.

With the SFO 400 F/O the min/max were 60 numbers apart, and with the shift of flying back to ORD the SSC indicated the company was planing to allow the "surplus" to decrease with these bids. It sure looks like the company issued backfill awards to cover a majority of the SFO 400 F/O's that bid off.
