Have you ever looked into the projected need for pilots going forward? I think scope is the boogie man created by management. If times really go bad every bankruptcy court will rip it right down the middle. Good on ya... scope in that $30 an hour job.
I'm sure the pilots at the legacy carriers who allowed the camel's nose that is the RJ to make it's way under the tent never thought they'd need stronger scope language too.
Contrary to your selfish opinion, this contract is for all of the 1100+ F9 pilots currently on property, plus those who will be hired over the next few years, not just the senior bunch who wouldn't be hurt by furloughs.
