Not speaking for Jerry, but I think I agree with him on this. We shouldn't grant any relief from displacements. If the company wants to displace on the top end while hiring on the bottom, let them. With our record, any contractual relief we give will ultimately hurt US far worse.
Also, if my fenced airplane going away while the fences are still up results in my displacement, then my displacement should happen while the fences are still up so I couldn't displace to the 777. That's only fair.
My two cents.
