You are wrong. PWA says 2 hours between flights and none of the flights have to be Delta. This is what you must comply with to be contractually compliant.
Now if you want Delta to positive space you as per the FOM, then the second flight has to be Delta or Delta Connection (makes sense because they're not gonna buy you a ticket on another airline).

Nothing to see here. Cockpits will remain empty. All jumpseaters will just flow back since there’s all kind of empty seats.

So, zero replies in support of 1 flight to work if you have the jumpseat reserved and it lands within a to-be-determined amount of time!?!?

I stand educated. Thank you all. Future conformity between the FOM and PWA would be nice for the sake of clarity. (As long as it’s not deleterious).

Yes. We need a much better JS policy. At this point, the bar is PSC front and back end. We'll see what the union and company work out.

What does within 1 hour mean? 1 hour before? The policy should be the allowed turn time for a DH. If the DH allowance is good enough for the company for operational reliability it should be good enough for a commute.

Why should I expect anything less? We have that now and have had it for like a year and a half. And I'm not DEMANDING. I said that's the bar the union should set. Just like the union set the bar at 25% DC. They then can negotiate for the actual language.
