You're about as thick as they come.
Your argument is flawed.
The contract covered the closing of a base. It did NOT cover the reopening of the exact same base a few months later. Hence the MOU.
As others have said, I would rather have seen seniority dictate the filling of the vacancies. In reality, pilots on that equip were so senior, they would have held it anyway.
This IAH proposal is not similar at all.
