the difference being they also benefitted from all those things, it’s not like they did that out of altruism for us. And most those things minus PS were negotiated during a contract as improvements not something that was necessarily “paid for”.

A min balance would likely not benefit anyone who retires more than 7-10 years from now, which is 2/3-3/4 our list. It would also disproportionately benefit those with only a couple years or less to go. Conversely it would take away the ability for pilots to invest and get decent returns and lock in a VERY low rate of return, taking actual retirement money away from others.
