Did you really rob the bank? Or did the teller "voluntarily" give you the money because that looked like the best alternative at the time?
I am not discrediting the threat. Pilots realize the danger with the Judge allowing the company to impose a contract, and take it seriously, that threat was never converted. Yes, the companies used the leverage of the court, but it was the threat of action, not the action itself. It really is an unknown since it was never used. Good thing too, but we came to an "agreement" the judge did not allow a contract to be thrown out and a new one imposed. Ego my point.
