I think it is safe to say the rule is not going anywhere...

I was against that rule to begin with.
A useless knee jerk incorrect response to a different problem.
Provided the training is up to par I see no issue with returning to the “old” system.
They do it every day in Europe, 250 hrs and FO or SO with an equivalent level of safety.

Let me guess, we should pay for our type ratings too? After all, they do it Europe!

Restricting entry to increase the wages? Not very American....( Free market and all)
The only reason we have 1500 hours is because a 5000hr pilot crashed a plane. He failed every possible check ride multiple times. Better training and checking improves safety much more than an hour requirement, but yes, if you are only interested in keeping your pay, by all means, support 1500hr.

The police in Germany love kicking in pilot's doors over their contractor status..
European pilots also don't get paid as much, have as much career stability, have as much schedule flexibility.
Flying in Europe sucks. Anyone who has done both will tell you so. The last thing on earth we want in the US is some schizophrenic euro pilot market.
