First you would have to prove to me there are fewer flip flops. Second understand what we gave up, short version you are allowed to exceed 8 in 24 on consecutive days and continue operating. If it is over two duty periods than just a normal rest required. The third day is when you get your sixteen hours. Before contract 2015 we got long layover (24 -36 hours) between transcons. The bottom line is we are much more productive on the days side and I don’t think the flip flops have decreased.
