Just as domicile location, work rules, scope, pay rates, company financials, company culture, etc etc play into the decision of where to target employment so does upgrade potential. What you'll notice is I didn't ask "how long to upgrade to CA at x?". That indeed will change. By having the seniority number of the junior CA (or FO) at each base, coupled with mandatory retirements and projected growth, I'd argue you can get a fairly decent projection of when a domicile might become available.

So yes, I know everything can change; however, if I'm truly trying to build the full picture PRIOR to being on property this information is useful.
