On the upside his marriage, ver 1.0, survived and he still has his house.
Of course if he had stayed at Atlas, which would have looked really stupid, he would be a senior Captain. But along the way he would have skated on the edge of seeing Chapter 7.
We are all just little mammals on the highway of aviation. Road kill is both a very common and a very random event.
So step up to the table and roll the dice.

I think he should go and enjoy that cash and his wife instead of hanging around like a turd that won't flush.

Unless there is significant growth or a mass exodus, eight year upgrades are not on the horizon for the junior guys, more like 15+!!!
