VTO more Senior than Reserve?

I've never been on an airplane at FedEx where that is categorically true. I have experienced being TOO junior to Hold a Reserve line. Which really meant being awarded a random reserve line via the VTO process.

Not having looked at all of the fleet rewards, I'd venture a guess that the first 20-30% of VTO lines go somewhat Senior, the next third a muddled result, but the last 20-30% go Junior.

I, for one, would like the VTO builds to be processed more like the CIA function runs. I understand that trips do pop into availability late in the process sometimes, but it's incredibly frustrating to see someone Junior to you flying a trip you requested. A trip that was available when you submitted your VTO "Request"
