Interesting observation. Taking that thought a bit further, if the company suddenly decided to get A380s, we should not get a pay raise for moving to a bigger airplane. I mean, the company chose to get bigger airplanes, we didn't. Why should a pilot be rewarded for their decision?
You can't argue for a pay raise from a bigger airplane without accepting that a pay cut comes from a smaller plane.
