They are looking towards the future when we all know pilots will be at a premium at any airline, legacy carriers as well. There isn’t a single 1500 CFI being hired right now. They are simply acknowledging they will need to be more flexible in the future, which doesn’t mean now.
The lowering of the mins is like saying UAL and DAL are hiring 1500 TT CFIs because that’s their mins as well.
Lots of applications on file before we start going the 1500 CFI route, but we will most likely see it at one point.
