Once I finish bidding in a very similar manner to you, I just cut and paste everything I've done and add it to the bottom of my bid. Between the 2 blocks of identical bids I add a "Forget Line XX" to get rid of my avoid trip if not LCA and I'm done.

I've found the LCAs on my plane to be very active on the swap board and I don't bend over backwards to fly with them (anymore) since odds are they're going to swap out of your trip anyway. Even if they stay in it the buy rate has been something less than 50%, at least in my case.
