Not much higher in the believability chain, IMO.

Now, for the JNC communication, it almost generates more questions than answers from the 9E guys. Right now, we can refuse one extension a month with no limit in the year. Did we just go to 1 per month but only 3 times a year? I'd have busted through that in March this year. Does the company get to drop us an extra day no matter what. No pilot will be reduced below 10 days off without his consent, but I thought we were getting min days off of 11? Will there be transparency to make sure they've gone through every reserve before JAing? They're supposed to "exhaust all other options" before escalating a home reserve to ready now, but good luck proving it. Also, the definition of extension is nearly the same definition that DW twisted. As of now, if you're supposed to be done at noon on a JFK-DTW leg, but they put you on a JFK-BUF-DTW that gets you back at 4, it's not an extension.....it's SCHEDULE CHANGE and isn't refusable because it's not really "additional flying," even though it gets you back 3+ hours later. Unless we get that loophole closed, the language isn't that much tighter.

It's gonna come down to exact contract language for me.
