Silver- you are 100% correct, this situation is one where scheduling just "covers the flying" but technically is not done correctly by the CBA. I would just hate to see brand new FO's try this, get burned, and come on here saying "but others said this was how it works".
Congrats on the upgrade BTW- has it been a while? I noticed you said you are still on rsv.
