If you compare two random groups of a thousand pilots with three years seniority, yes their experiences will be the same.

individual careers live and die over random, arbitrary, capricious events. For every pilot with a story about how a little bit more seniority helped them, there are zero pilots with a story about how having a little less seniority prevented a disaster. Should you skip your sister’s wedding for a class two weeks earlier? No. Should you skip you buddies wedding for a class two months earlier? Yes.

For the folks to took the first class offered a major/legacy, pre covid, that will yield them 1-2 extra years of longevity pay and counting. 1-2 years more at top of pay scale, 401k DC, vacation, etc. Not hard to make the math work that it could end up being close to a $1m swing all inclusive if you put them in a widebody for two more years at the end of their career. They stressed the last year, as everybody did, but they’ve got a number and with the way things are turning around, probably safe. Never pass a class up, anywhere, unless you have an extremely good reason.

you are correct, getting into any field as soon as possible will increase your chances of making it to the top. The longer you are anywhere the higher chance you have of moving up.

Thats if you are only concerned with the income you make from being a pilot. If this event teaches pilots anything, it should be that you need to diversify. Start a business. Get into real estate. Who cares about 1 or 2 years more longevity if you can grow a business that earns as much or more revenue than flying airplanes.

Does an onlyfans count as being a small biz entrepreneur?

I've heard promoting ED Pills in uniform was a pretty lucrative side hustle.
