GRR to ORD is a much better option, than holding out for that 175 in dfw!

Not what he meant. What he's saying is that the upward movement from relatively junior to relatively senior on that jet should be faster due to the more senior FO's who fly it upgrading up and out. Senior FO's moving up and out means upward movement up the FO list on that jet, leading to potentially better quality of life.
