As a leader myself, I realize that this is quite absurd, and choose to not recognize it as a valid metric.

The vast majority of the regional pilots that I meet commuting seem to me to be cut from the same cloth as every other pilot in the industry. I have no idea why United picks who they do. The point was that their selection isn’t decided by qualifications only. Just because one is hired by one company, doesn’t mean that that same individual would be hired by another.
