If the system can’t build a line with blocks of 4 days off then you’ll get dumped to composite lines or reserve if you don’t have composite lines. The only other option is to waive your guaranteed 4 days off.
Even the most garbage pbs systems out there have a distinction that basically says: 100 pilots, 80 are guaranteed lineholder.
So if you're 75 and that happens, too bad, you're a lineholder and there's nothing they can do.
