The MBCMP (Market Based Cash Balance Plan) is completely independent and separate from the Minimum Balance.
The MBCBP can exist without the Min Balance. The MBCBP may or may not be optional, depending on the Department of the Treasury’s decision on the matter, and is not a windfall for anyone, senior or not. It’s simple a tax-deferred vehicle for excess DPSP Cash.
The Minimum Balance, however, would be a windfall for a small section of the folks screwed from their DB retirement plans.
They are two completely different things.

In most states, "taxable income" for the final $ of yearly earnings is ~ 40%.

Would returns not float with the market? Agreed, a 5% "target" trails the market by >6%. I do not understand why the optionality is hard for the IRS.

In most states, "taxable income" for the final $ of yearly earnings is ~ 40%. The way it works out with the extra Net Investment Income Tax of 3.8% is going to be 35+7+3.8 for our family in 2022. ... 45.8%. The Paul Ryan/Trump plan moved the threshold for itemization. As a result, most people are taking their standard deductions.

The IRS simply has not responded to any requests from us. Optionality is likely hard because no plan like this exists anywhere.

I recall reading somewhere that the $$$ deposited in the MBCBP did NOT have survivorship benefits…ie…your DPSP excess is deposited for X amount of years and then you stroke out at 64….and that money that you put in…stays in the pot and your surviving spouse gets the shaft.
Truth??? Honest question. I do seem to remember there was angst about this 4’ish years ago when it was being designed.
Also, I do not believe for a nano second the the IRS is going to change the rules just for Delta Pilots. It will be an all in or nothing plan. If implemented…you will not have s choice. You will be enrolled, your DPSP cash will be deposited and you’ll have no say over the investment vehicle or returns.
Solid NO on the MBCBP…and the ship has sailed on the MBP/Lump Sum Plus up money grab.
