But I am sure you will disagree.
Not sure I follow your logic. Adding people increases your percentage seniority without causing your seniority number to change. Being #400 out of 401 is much lower seniority than #400 of 800. Perhaps you'd care to enlighten us on the advanced math they taught at that "other" airline.
