Hiring 700 pilots this year alone will be improbable. I'm willing to bet the orders will be canceled, delayed, or sent to an airline that can staff. So bank on stagnation or shrinkage. Hope for growth. I don't think you will see any regional able to grow in this environment.
Nah they have proven how stupid some of our fellow pilots are at math. They will continue to sucker pilots into the right seat. I don't see them failing at it, but their logic is as fallible as you have stated: I just wish others could see it.
I stated logic with normal math. So far, the dupers have used small adjustments without numbers...it's better known as misdirection: the used car salesmans best friend.
