Yes. I disagreed with you on this then and respectfully I still do.
As of today the most junior captain was hired in June '01 (B757/767 ONT). That's 15 years!
(..or a measly 1 day if you skip the line and become a NURP.

The day that number shrinks we'll update it here. However, until then potnential new-hires should look at current upgrade times because facts are better than hopes and wishes.
Note, I agree with you that this is a good gig however I'm a realist and prefer actual numbers.
