If you get WB in SFO via this route, you will be commuting to reserve for a very long time. So to answer your question, you MAY get 787 WB in SFO eventually, then your QOL commuting to reserve will be bad. You won't hold WB in DEN or LAX your first year and by then, so many things may have changed it is unpredictable to give you a read on how QOL would be.

756 SFO and LAX on the other hand go more junior (756 SFO sometimes offered to new hires) and are not Global Reserve, just Basic Reserve in those bases.
