And even if the MEC decided to try that while getting ready for section 6, and even if the company (being the rational, big-hearted employer they are) decided to do us a solid and say yes.... as soon as it got programmed in...around December (2027), Marcal or someone else will be here bitching that it's not fair, he's on track to lose 150% of last year's earnings.... and 23M7 needs to be leveled by the day and not the occurrence. I can think of several other potential snags in how that leveling would be applied. You've been here a while, I'm sure you can see some problems applying M7 leveling, too.

So yes. By default, it's a wind the clock issue.
