Scheduling doesn't care about the contract, and during irops they purposefully violate it. My advise to reserves is to soak them with pilot issue forms. Maybe scheduling will start using pilots correctly if everyone files every time something fishy happens.
I’ve had issues with scheduling mis assigning trips myself, but if you call and are persistent and discuss the how the assignment violates the contract (which has *very* clear order of assignment rules), they’ll reassign the trip to you and call the other reserve back to put them back on reserve. The one time they couldn’t remove the other reserve (since they weren’t contactable... they were placed on rest before the trip), I submitted and was paid out (after a few months) for the pilot issue form I submitted. Always take screenshots.

What lines are you looking at? I'm looking at awarded CPJ NYC CA lines right now. Non-vacation lines from the number one in seniority and descending go as follows for days off:

15 15 15 13 12 14 14 15 15 15 14 14 14 14 15 15 14 12 13 15 14 13 12 15 11 15 14 13 14 14.....

Yeah. Your optimistic numbers aren't jiving with reality in NYC.
11/30 have 15. Let's call that 1/3, not 3/5. And no one has more than 15 without vacation. Those are facts.

To be fair, in a 31 day month, all of those 14s would be 15s. Then 1/3 of the group would have 16 days off. But you are right, more than 16 off is not common on the 200. The 900 is usually good for 1 or 2 more days off, and composes the bulk of the fleet. But we're in the slow season now. Once flying picks up as summer approaches, you'll see more 11 and 12 day off credit pushed lines. Though contractually, those can be no more than 30% of the lines in a category.

FYI, any pilot that "Enables MLR" is forced to have more than 80 hours of credit doesn't count towards the 30% that are credit pushed.

I've had those selected every month since October and still end up with 75 hours and a few minutes every month. PBS desk says there just isn't enough flying to go around to give me more than the minimum. That's why open time is so scarce too. That's why the severely red reserve grid is such a farce.

Blame the Pilots who took the monthly unpaid leaves.

Ok, to be clear, threshold elevates the bottom to 85, mlr enable says 'yes gimme that 150% if you put me in the push, and you might as well take off the top restriction too'. Theres an email out about this Every. Single. Month.

It sucks you're not getting what you want.

“Enable MLR” just allows the credit window for you to be higher and will give you 150% over 85 hours, it doesn’t tell the solver that you want the MLR range. If you want the MLR, you need to select “desire MLR”.

What I am saying is that when we go back to the credit push months, anyone that enables MLR, doesn’t count towards the “30% credit push limit”.
