No, it really doesn't, see the bottom.

If one is going to peruse a Airbus/73 type, find a Legacy/major/LCC/ULCC that will pay for it.

Do you have a masters? If so, get ANOTHER ONE, in anything. Just make sure to get a 4.0 in the program. It's more "marketable" than a type on a NB aircraft.

Just so we got this straight; You have all these ratings, you have all the college you want/need, and you're a military trained pilot looking for a type rating to make yourself more "marketable" for a major as your next stop?
