So it should not be a factor in your decision making, unless it's an AA regional with flow.
And realize that even that AA regional flow, like a Delta pension plan, is a contract written in smoke which can go away instantly with a little legal maneuvering at the major. Or like Republic’s 50 seat flying contracts when the company decided to do a bankruptcy to dump them.
There are extremely high powered legal departments well paid to keep the obligations pretty much going one way. Nor does the RLA realistically help much. Anyone not understanding this needs to talk to people who do. Forewarned is forearmed.
