There's next to no movement except for minimal retirements here, while DL you'd still be progressing up the ladder as people leave above you AND get hired below you. End of the day, DL is a more secure job than B6, and for some losing their B6 seniority to be junior at a theoretical DL NB BOS base would be worth the jump.
