We have very short memories as pilots. If you think that "It won't effect me" tell that to all the 737-200, 737-300/500, 727 Captains that lost their seat. Then they got bumped to the right seat of the 767/757 or airbus. Huge pay cut. What about all of those FO's. It resulted in the thousands of furloughs that came from giving our scope give away. It effects everyone from the top of the seniority list to the bottom.
The CS-300 pays $202.55 in Jan at 12 year pay $185.70 1st year Ca pay
The E-195 pays $159.11 at 12 year pay and $146.06 at 1st year pay
The E-190 pays $135.36 at 12 year pay and $124.26 at 1st year pay
I don't think there will be any problem filling those bids. Would you rather start at $66 an hour or $124.26.
The company has already made it public that they are looking to buy Air Canada's E-190 fleet when they turn them over to Boeing. (Part of their 737-max deal) or Republic's CS-300 firm orders. This is on top of looking for used Airbuses and 737s.
There is no need to give relief on scope for some used jets that are coming regardless of what we do. UAL needs every airplane they can get their hands on.
