What it would also do is penalize guys that simply fly their schedule, or fly less. Assume the total amount of money we're going to wrestle from the company is finite. Whatever is allocated to payrate increases can be distributed evenly, or it can reward overtime especially. Favoring overtime means less money per unit of work in the pockets of those flying normal schedules. 1.5>80 is a method for displacing "raise" money from those pilots who fly normal schedules, to those who fly more.
