So a CR7 pilot could have a trip where he constantly moves between the two a/c on longer turns. This would dramatically improve CR7 pilot’s lines due to the fact that you have more routes and a/c with the CR9 added to their rotation.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but this is how my friend at ASA explained it.
