I have the QOL right now that allows me to do whatever I want with my schedule and still make good money. UA/AA have never had our scheduling abilities. I don't expect that to change with a new contract.
From this and previous posts, seems you know it all. I made similar calculation (mistake) a decade ago. Good luck.
