It wasn't only out of spite, it was also to try to provoke the group so they could file a law suit and use it later to devalue the contract further.
Look, I voted no, and I don't like the reassignment language. Will they reassign inside the trip? Yes that is likely. Outside of when you are scheduled to get back, less so. Again, if the rate of significant reassignments skyrockets I could fully understand why a pilot would end up being fatigued. I just don't see that risk being totally worth the reward to the company, it's cheaper to just not be staffed THAT lean.
