I believe its because your management is setting the company up for a sale. It would be difficult with an RJ operation, since the most likely purchasers are already at their scope limit, and your RJ feed would have put them over the limit and caused problems.
Proposing the pseudo-international flights are a good example because JB lacks the economies of scale to make that work, like we have seen WOW and others not be able to survive without a fully integrated network.
I’d say no merger now, but if the stock goes under $4B there are going to be some interested parties.
