I think you may be reading that incorrectly. There is no "inverse" seniority required in the seat you are coming FROM, however there is inverse seniority in the seat you are going TO. The most junior ANC FO does not have to train in reverse order amongst all ANC FO's, rather he is grouped with all the guys going to the same seat, say 27SO. All guys system wide involuntarily moved to the 27SO will be trained in reverse system seniority INTO that seat.
Depending on the training letters, the most junior ANC FO may hold onto his seat longer than the #56 from the bottom ANC FO becasue he may have been excessed into the 27FO seat and the training is more accelerated than the SO seat. In that respect reverse seniority is not "honored".
Clear as mud? That is the way I read it. Seniority is honored with respect to the inbound seat.
