But really reserve is never so senior that you can't hold it. Maybe on a new fleet where there is no flying but that's it.
For most categories that is the case. I'm not sure how it is right now, but I recall there were years where the bottom several pilots in ATL765B couldn't hold reserve if they wanted it. They were all forced onto lines because reserve went senior.
