They DID see it coming!!!
Congress intentionally built in a 3 year lag between the date that the law passed and the date that it became effective! The airlines, (both regionals and the majors who depend/benefit from their feed) had 3 years to come up with a plan to deal with the 1500 hour rule yet the chose to do absolutely nothing about it,..... until it was too late. And I, for one, am thrilled about it.
