For sake of argument let’s do 1323 by 8950. That’s roughly 15% movement in our list with 0 growth. Meaning just getting back to our previous size!! So what are you basing your math on? Just curious ?
I looked at my system seniority today (in the mid 60s%)
Then I just took the 9014 and added 1000. Rounded to 10,000 for simplicity.
Took my current seniority number from the SWAPA seniority snapshot and divided it by 10,000 (#5XXX / 10,000)
Ended up with something just shy of 60% so, for me in particular, just about a 5% improvement. I admittedly didn't get as granular as you did. If I'm mathing wrong though, please correct me.
