Let me recall the events:

2. Review of Final language.
3. Vote by MEC.
4. Release for view by pilot group.
As I recall the review is the "intent" of the language. Does the language match what they meant.

More times than I can count with the current CBA, I have heard "the intent of section XX was XXX, not what you read". A prime example is LOA 05-03, what you read and what the company thinks it means are 2 separate things. iators who actually wrote it.
