If they still choose to apply and take a class date at United, they are well aware they may become accelerated pilots. Free will and choice is abundant here. Nobody is forcing people to apply to United, especially if they don't want to upgrade or have no prior PIC experience at a regional (which we are starting to see now). If we end up having applicants play Russian roulette with their first year here, knowing full well there was a chance they could be given a CA slot, then that's on them - nobody forced them to apply.
