Guys I'm on the same side as you but I don't think that reserve is going to ever be fixed. The majority of pilots are lineholders, and they make the decisions around here about which contracts pass and which don't unfortunately.
In two threads you are missing the idea that when (not if) things change and manpower shrinks reserve may not be a choice.
