The context of the discussion was absolutely about premium pay for reroutes... But for the sake of argument, let's say you are right about 15%. The company would have a serious disincentive for reroute shenanigans. THAT is the point. It's not about us making more, it's about stopping the QOL decline. But if they do it anyway "for operational necessity", we are compensated accordingly.
If management is as good as some folks say they are, that number would be budget dust.
