I do think 765 is believable though.

another X factor is how much liberty does the company have when releasing people from seat locks? If their are unfilled 330 slots, can the CO only let 320 pilots break their seat lock or if the let people break the lock is it an all or nothing. Looking at the PWA it seems like the company may have the discretion to let people break their seat locks on a fleet by fleet basis (only let 320 pilots break their lock to go to 330, same with ER/765) which may encourage them to do so.
