If it is a tool to attract, retain and control their regional’s staffing, then I suspect the video claiming a pilot must be based in IAD or IAH to be accurate. Why would United want to help American attract, retain and control the regional pilots at American’s bases?
Talk to United pilots, ask them what's supposed to come. Ask them about scope relief. Read about Scott Kirby when he was at US airways, American and how he loves regionals. Check United announcements and you'll realize that United is, perhaps, the only major relying on regionals to grow. Here, I give you this link. It's not a secret that United is by far, the airline with less people hired in these last two years.
