If there's no strike, there are no picket lines to cross, therefore no scabs. Guy stuck at a regional wants to get out but Delta/AA/UA don't call, so I can see someone applying to NAI out of FLL for the 787 FO position. It does not mean he'd cross a picket line and scab.

Lowest of the lowest is always a relative term. This widebody position in FLL is hardly the lowest paying widebody job offered at FLL/MIA for US pilots. Eg, 1-st year AmeriJet 767 starts at guarantee of 39,780.
