Wrong again - it was
CAL ALPA (read you) that allowed
CAL SCABS in CAL ALPA.
And the UAL pilots rightfully honored the 570 post strike.
Reference Flying The Line II
"Every professional airline pilot still covered by an ALPA contract owes the 570 a debt of gratitude. By courageously acting in concert with United’s striking pilots, the 570 allowed the pilots to settle the issue directly, without fear of their flank crumbling."
