Remember, the current MEC chair is the guy who chaired the negotiations that got us C2019.
This is not your early 2010’s management team either.
Gumm is dead set on escaping his 23M7 cost dilemma at a discount. The idea that they’re going to buy it back at fair value, in the short term, is a stretch at best.
I don’t particularly like the idea of giving away our most valuable bargaining chip without achieving comprehensive gains either. If a two year deal is signed, then negotiations will reopen in less than one year. Management will have no incentive to do anything but stall, assuming auto accept has already been traded away.
