Give the value to those who are working extra. More like $23m/6,000. (I made that number up, I don't know what % of pilots fly premium every month, but it's not 17,500).

For example with a QS, 3x/4x payout should go to the pilot flying the trip. They put the slip in, they intended to fly the trip, they got the trip done. They also volunteered for unlimited batch size phone harassment. This also prevents overlapping 23m7 type payouts and lets it be leveled.
The entire pilot group would fly fatigued from hourly wakeups in hopes of 3x or 4x pay. No thanks.
