The points you made above for edv are relevant but here’s another perspective. At endeavor you’ll only have benefits on delta where for Dtw and atl at skywest you’ll get delta and united.
As for reserve, you won’t be on reserve for more than a month or 2 at skywest at atl or dtw after ioe so yeh we have crappy reserve rules but you’ll be off reserve much quicker at skywest.
as for upgrade it’s currently about a year 4 months for guys with no prior 121 time and I believe pushing 3 years for endeavor.
at the end of the day there are a lot of factors to consider wherever you go but looking specifically at atl or dtw I’d give the edge to skywest.
