Dude,
Your original post made no sense. A violation is a violation is a violation. It really doesn’t matter what the reason is, especially since the company also violates our PWA routinely regarding DH policy.
In a recent company video seat changes were “blamed” on a “reseating engine” that reissues all seats with any equipment change.
Too bad it puts DHing Pilots at the back of the list directly violating The PWA. Since all seats are being assigned from scratch there is zero reason not to follow the PWA priority, but guess what? The company blames it on IT incompetence, so I guess we shouldn’t care because it’s a “technicality?”
We should not overlook any violations of the PWA, no matter what the reason.
Finally I am at a loss for your motive in defending the company for violating the PWA.

If your intent was to solicit support for this type of thinking you have achieved the exact opposite result.
