At the end of the day, absent your singular opinion, the established treatment of a 30 hour rest is that it is equivalent to a non-fly day (whether you look at the final 24 hours and its assignment vs award).
How does this currently harm the pilot group? Could a side affect of reinterpretation not be the loss of stacking 15 reserve days together in PBS?
