In any case I doubt many minds or votes will be changed, but I do appreciate the effort to point out both the good and bad.

Yeah the con side was pretty weak. I voted yes, and could come up with plenty of cons outside of "we should have gotten more". On the QOL side, plenty of the workrules were clearly solutions to company problems, where we agreed in exchange for more $$. Instead of involuntary productivity gives, we got voluntary with extra pay. Instead of getting rid of PB days, we got a new tools for CS to use that assure excess known flying go to regular pilots as overtime, vs reserves that screw future staffing. Just an example that's been hashed to death on these forums.
