This is the exact same reason the company abused batch sizes before, which led them to abusing M7 the first time. It’s the same reason they are stuck now.
They're trying to cover way too much flying compared to the way they used to.
I think the new system will work just fine and we do not need to make any changes.
Time to run coverage? Itll go out the normal way. You’ll only be woken up if it’s yours.
No time to run coverage? It’ll go out as a QS, and the company pays 3x in exchange for the inconvenience to pilots of only having a single batch.
Any changes to this will need to be requested by the company in section 6 in exchange for substantial return elsewhere, end of story.
