Not saying you are necessarily wrong, just that there may be other plausible explanations.
Well if you want to work at a regional for many extra years bring advanced aircraft to those airlines and you will get your wish. You will have a much better career and earnings if those seats are at the mainline. Delta has hired over 4000 pilots the last 4 years because they made a decision to bring 100 seat flying to the mainline. UAL and AMR have hired a fraction of that number because they still hope for scope relief and keeping that flying at the regionals.
