Yes the company does have to decide, and in the fantasy scenario you present the company will repeatedly decide to not make them silver. Then your greedy senior pilots will continue to fly them white rather than let them go green to a junior pilot.

I’m not twisting anything, I’m explaining to you why the company isn’t offering premium pay it doesn’t need to.

Yes, if the company suddenly becomes magnanimous they could give every open trip as a SS. Does it confuse you when I tell you the company wont do that either?
