Then even so, they should have taken it or picked up and left. If you don't like it, you don't have to put up with it.
And if the majority of mainline guys at all the legacies ad their various unions did not give into scope, we would not be in all of this today. RJs should have been mainline, same w/props, but hey, a lot of those guys felt the RJs and props just weren't good enough for them and they got what they got.
And QOL for pilots suffers today because of it. But it is what it is, and I do what I do because it is what I want to do for now.
