Probably. But why do any of us want an "unbiased computer program" in the first place? I think its the wrong way to go to almost completely disregard the line pilots in the process in the first place. Yes I realize that "back in the day" it was a little too much who you knew. But now the pendulum has swung WAY too far in the other direction. Several airlines still value line plot recommendations far more than DL does. At least give the pilots a one time rec that carries more weight than a simple app scoring. JMHO.
