Pretty easy at Skywest to bid avoid the 200 if you want and only do 700/900 flying.

Also how was that “your point exactly”. You made a quip about flying 15 min legs in a 200 like you were some how immune from it at Envoy, then turn around and say there is crap flying at both. So are you immune from 15 min legs or not?
It clearly went way over your head. It was a straw man pointed at the other poster, who said WO's can "never" have same QOL as OO/YX. Both regionals have their fair share of crap flying. If you're on the 175 at Envoy, there really isn't much of it though. And 175 isn't that senior. The most senior position, DFW 175 CA, is under 1yr 10 months to hold. Junior DFW 175 CA lineholder is right at 3 years.

People have ridiculously short memory here it seems. Not even 2 years ago, YX was a dumpster fire people tried to avoid at all cost, and 6-ish months ago OO was the lowest paid regional, by some margin. If you think you can predict what happens in the next 2 years, well, good for you.
