This is why I’m NOT checking the box.
The way I see it, if you’re above the unstacking line then why not retain the tactical flexibility until PBS bidding for the PVAC month?
I agree it could be useful if junior or if you’re sure you’re going to bid reserve*, know you want those days off AND importantly know that you’ll get the PVAC you’re shooting for.
*RES is never guaranteed safe from unstacking.
It’s a nice tool for some specific cases, but I don’t think it’s necessary for many of us, and definitely not an automatic yes. More choices are better though. Glad they were able to add this for those that want it.
