They're not just "thinking about it", they are actually negotiating about it. A big change in status quo would not go over well... arbitrator might well undo a move like that (if it came to arbitration). Such a move would also show lack of good faith, which could get AS ALPA released for self-help. They are chomping at the bit to walk as it is, I doubt mgt wants to expedite release.
