I think acl pretty well nailed it, if you are in any jeopardy of being affected by the MOAB, have all of your ae, vd, and md bids updated. In reality, I think everyone except really senior 747-400 and 777 capts are in jeopardy of being affected.
I like the MOAB concept, we take a sharp stick in the eye one time and its done. The alternative is a painful tweak, followed by another and another... death by paper cut. Git 'er done.

Nothing stays the same, I will tell you that. We need to eek out the efficiencies of the merger, and it will effect most.

With the added flying out of LGA and the new terminals in JFK and LGA, NYC is going to move progressively towards being our best all around base. If they make it more friendly to commuters like DTW evidently is, which imo could happen in a key stroke, then it could very well be our best base.
ATL is a mean base. I think the people that are 2-3% in category are able to get commutable trips. And Peachtree city is not a utopia, people die there every day. And there are losts of 2 and 3 day trips, back to back trips too. I'd try NYC first if I was looking for a new base.

Add to it the 27R VASI is on the right side unlike a lot of runways, the 27R lights were on low intensity, and the fact that the center line lights on Mike are those LED's which can appear white. Add to it that it was their third/fourth runway change. Add to it the fatigue issues. See where this is going.
Cheers

Handled well this could be a win or at worst a neutral for most involved. Handled heavy handedly and poorly, this could set the stage for a miserable place to work for years to come I'm afraid.
