Because if they don't increase the flows from the WOs, then probably about those same number of pilots will leave the AA WOs and go to DAL/UAL/UPS/FedEx/JetBlue/Alaskan/Spirit/Frontier. In the latter case, then the AA system loses a pilot to competitors, which they can ill afford to do with this Pilot Shortage.
