I don't disagree that the 12 day trips could be a major hang up, but that could be mitigated with smart negotiating.
Totally correct, PBS is just a computer program that converts a given PWA into a monthly schedule. Get "Trips Touching" in your PWA (unlikely) and PBS can then "grant" trips touching.
He was right however in this sentiment that the fidelity that PBS brings to scheduling enabled the elimination of trips touching.
