I’d guesstimate that that seniority will drop over the next few vacancies and you’ll again see the 777/787 available to guys in SFO at 2+ years, if wanted.

But, as mentioned above, you’d be giving up poke at Suisan and Umekes, sunrise at coffee plantations in Kona, cheap scooter rides with snorkel gear thrown in for free, Mai Tais and pupu at Uncle Bo’s, and free Blue Hawaiian helicopter rides all over the islands so quite a few will choose paid vacation for “work” with weekends/holidays off over watching other people fly from the jumpseat.
