It's more that the legacy pilots manning each fleet were in different seniority ranges, the LUAL group that was in the 76T was more senior to start. In the end it doesn't matter, the fleets are being merged and you can't bid into the 76T any longer. New 756 bases in ORD & SFO will open shortly and all other bases will be merged so that by next summer there is only one surviving category.
