For us most of the loss came from loss of transition and vacation overlap.
All things being equal on the scheduling provisions in the contract, PBS is more flexible. It will definitely allow you to bid around your wife's schedule, typically in one shot, even if her days off vary from week to week.
Over the years on the VX side, I've basically never missed an important family commitment/business meeting/social event at home.... unless I really wanted to
