Also, senior lifers who have no where to go would rather fly a 70 seater for more pay as opposed to 50 seaters that are headed for the desert.

There are no more 70/76 seaters allowed for Delta. The cap has been reached. Don't fall for it, because if 9E does get more 70 seaters they won't be down under the Delta banner.

I guess that leaves UAL.

What about the Gojet planes they apparently cannot staff?

That's just a rumor. I haven't seen any confirmation that GoJet is unable to staff the additional flying they have been awarded.
