Weak argument. If you go back far enough, you can see posts where even I defended this company to any and all attackers. Most of us are still here not due to lack of trying. Many of the more senior captains aren't going to go to Spirit or JetBlue because it is only a small step up. Most will only apply to Delta, United, or American. We have more to lose than someone coming here right from a regional. We were hired here when NOBODY else was hiring. If I were at a regional today, I would never apply here in a million years.
If you still want to ignore those who are in the know because you think you will strike gold here, be my guest. You too will learn.
