Because those rates of pay have to be agreed to by the BOD, and thereafter the membership, SWA will not operate any aircraft other than a 737 with 175 or fewer seats unless those rates are viewed favorably by us.

So no, SWA won't make that deal in a heart beat because I can guarantee we won't be flying those aircraft for skywest rates. Thats like saying that if we get XLRs or widebodies is "altering scope" that SWA would jump on.
