I agree.
The huge mistake we made was when in one of the surveys we were asked:
"would you like to keep 35 hours pay per vacation week?"
Most of us thought YES, of course!
The correct question was:
"Would you prefer: 2 weeks at 35 hours/week (=70 hours) OR 3 weeks at 23 hours per week (=69 hours)?"
The second option to me is MUCH better, I'd sacrifice one hour pay for another week of guaranteed vacation. I actually WANT MORE GUARANTEED TIME OFF.
(SURE like anyone I'd prefer 25 hours pay per week or whatever we can get more than 23 but for the sake of understanding the priorities of the pilot group the survey was flawed)
