Are we really supposed to lose much sleep over Pilots who base their budgets on PS and GS's?

I've seen so many people talk about the hours cuts while ignoring the thousands of displacements that get undone. while not everyone was displaced it certainly affected a huge portion of the pilot group at UAL. Since far fewer DL pilots % wise are under the threat of furlough, a similar plan here should require a lot smaller hours cuts. the way their plan is laid out it seems to make sense to me. we will see when UAL pilots vote on it.
