It’s a gamble either way. I’m seeing a lot of people senior to me moving over to the ERJ from the CRJ.
So I may be going backwards in seniority in the near future. Not sure how the outlook is on the CRJ side.
Really it depends on if you want to live in base or not.

The pay package SAPA agreed to, as always lacked foresight.
And let's not forget the wonderful "block vs credit" BS!
I just looked at a 2 day trip in open time, Blocks 10:25 but credits 8:10!

If they see a trend in declining hiring numbers and an increasing exodus of FOs they will be back to the bargaining table long before 2022.

Doesn't the company want us to do this, as in that situation the pilots would make more money at mainline's expense, or am I misunderstanding this?
