Just state the facts and let the document speak for itself.
The argument against it is every time they say they had to compromise on something. There is no compromise in this environment and any compromise is a mark in the No column.
The "wish they hadn't left" statement is pretty lame and setting the expectation way too high.
I don't believe this contract will be that good. Especially if the rumored pay rates are true. The only way they might work is if LCO gets you a bunch of extra pay but with the other comment of "we want to work with the company to elimiate LCO" now you are going to be just above Delta 737 rate AND getting min pay for the month.
Company wins again "Congratulations you got a pay raise but we cut your monthly credit so your W2 is exactly the same as last year!"
