At the legacy carriers you have constant retirements for now, large fleet types, and more bases. All these factors only help your seniorty whether artificial or actual.
I'm not so sure that I would characterize the attempted merger as a "blunder." It prevented Spirit and Frontier from merging, which would've been a huge hit to B6, especially in Florida and Latin America.
