Notice what he sees as a future trend with regionals and the trends seen with the wholly owned regionals of Delta and AA.
If what he predicts is true, we will see fewer regionals flying and more flow agreements going forward which will mean fewer "off the street" options for regional pilots aspiring to move up. If someone chooses to go to a wholly owned regional, and this guy's predictions are wrong, they can still pursue a traditional job search but if someone chooses to go to a non wholly owned without a flow and the flow agreement trend continues, they may find themselves fighting over fewer and fewer off the street positions while competing against military and affirmative action applicants.

If you think the legacy airlines will somehow be able to get "more picky" with who and where they choose to hire from, I don't think it is worth wasting any breath to try and convince you otherwise. Logic is hard for some.
