I've got no real problem with those guys getting information out, but it most certainly is selling when you downplay, SEVERELY, any downsides of an item.

180 directly affected? 1-2% change in lineholders? And that's all that's bad about it?

EVERY SINGLE FO's QOL below the top guys still getting trips pulled will go down.

Weekends off, holidays off, commutable, 5 leggers, baseball games, etc, etc,

It will affect them all in all categories. To insinuate that this affects only a few is selling. It's quite literally punishing the FO's for the company's unwillingness to staff properly leading up to the retirement wave.

NOT OUR PROBLEM to solve for them and certainly not by selling the QOL of half the pilot group.
