We could, however, try to get Open Time paid at 150% during any IROP.

I’m being facetious in case it wasn’t clear.

Things I like at NK -
No same day starts(2 in 1)
No red eye plus 1 - my favorite trip is 0455 to Houston and then back home the next day 10 hours pay 5 hours flying, back at my house by 9 am
When assigned a trip, reserve have line holder protection.
Alternate dead head - arrive at your DH location, call, either have to assign you something or release you. Small victory but got released in LAS Saturday before Easter, caught a ride home that day, was off paid until Monday afternoon, for example.
Of course red/green DTZ schedule flexibility but y'all have heard about that ad nauseum

I would not get too caught up in drop to zero as a literal meaning, that is a regular event here at NK. Personally we need to find a drop number that works for the majority of the pilots and a system that doesnt require swaps, screw having to need someone to take your flying.
Plenty of times I have dropped to 50, enjoyed the time off, decide if I want to work 200%, and did not have to worry about maintaining certain credit.

I hope the SCL reserves in MCO are demanding an extra 30 minutes when they get called in for a trip. The company expects it, crew services should provide it.

Not worth spending a ton of negotiating capital on, but could use it to leverage a better reserve grid system and drop to a reasonable level of credit (35 or 50?).
First round - drop to 50 by seniority, if grids are green.
Second round - drop to 25 by seniority, if grids are green.
Third round - drop to zero, first come, first served.
