Ever since they made their threats and we shrunk and then voted yes, they started to grow us back. Growing us involves doing what it takes to hire pilots (bonuses, advertising), then going to AA and asking for more flying. AA gives the feed to whoever can staff it. All envoy wants to do right now is angle for more and more flying. Having excess staffing helps them do that. The rare case at an airline when growth is bad: when it justifies them metering the flow.
