My bad for bothering to engage you and wasting the time and bandwidth.
When you move on - you should run. The biggest failure in your logic is to see that the JCBA and SLI were separate process. JP had the same problem. And yes, the UALALPA's intent was to be pure in following the new merger policy. CALALPA's JP supported by the CAL pilots did not.
Enough said - go ask your person in the know the purpose of the new ALPA merger policy. You'd be surprised to find it was designed to prevent the situation we find ourselves. Better yet, don't believe me or your person in the know, but take the time to look for a copy of that merger policy.
