If Company A is losing money and about to close it's doors why should company B be strong armed into how they should save them?
If Company A bought less than 50% of Company B, then A can choose not to integrate ANY employees. If they purchase more than 50% of airline B's assets, they have to integrate employees via binding arbitration, because of AA and their unions previous 'un'integrations.
It protects employees who otherwise would have no voice, no due process and no equitable integration when purchased/merged by a larger airline.
