I seriously doubt crew resources cares much about junior Pilots bidding A positions. The main driver of rotation construction is minimizing credit. The second consideration is further reducing credit, and the last consideration is really reducing credit.
Although having helped out with the RCC a little over the years, I will admit that in the off months, when we are way overmanned - RCC inputs do rise to a close 4th.

So it's kinda like real estate, but instead of "location, location, location" it's "reduced credit, reduced credit, reduced credit". That makes quite a bit more sense. If the company expects it will cost them money by having pilots under 1,000 hours of 121 time bidding CA, they would look at options that reduce the cost. Maybe that would move into 4th place and put RCC in 5th.
