I would love to see the OT that you are seeing that the rest of us don't, because it is very different from what everyone else sees. DFW Captain's on Reserve virtually don't fly. DFW CA have solid green days to drop/swap days, given the solid amount of reserves; which is also why, a few months ago, the then Reduction bid had nearly 4x the amount of CA vs FO. And is still virtually unchanged.
FOs on reserve are breaking guarantee pretty much every month. Senior FOs don't bid reserve anymore because it is practically guaranteed to get flown. Any FO that can hold a line now wants a line.
Yes, there are "3 Days" worth 10 hours, which would mean "Redeyes", but "everything" is an extreme exaggeration that isn't even remotely true of the majority of DFW trips.
