So why is Delta working on plans to hire people with 0 hours of flying experience??? Several Delta pilots I have talked to in person, or have posted on the internet, have said they are planning for possible Ab-Initio hiring, just like the US military.

It is because the Pilot Shortage is getting worse and worse.
