Unfortunately that would require a level of solidarity among pilot groups that doesn't exist.
To stop the whipsaw, pilots would have to refuse to go to the new airline on the block. They aren't going to do that. There's always some that look at the new airline as a way to get ahead in seniority etc. etc.
Good in theory, flawed in practice because of human nature.
