I read it as the other way around. With the variable vacation hours, if you select the minimum (12 hours) PBS would likely only give you 9 off. With the maximum, you’d only have to fly ALV-36 hours (ex. 72-36 = 36 hours you must fly; i.e. 2 18-hour trips), however no guarantees on what days you’ll have off (same as it is now, seniority depending). However you’ll never have fewer than 9 off consecutively.

Their is a chart, but would be a great road show question for them to explain

even if you selected 36 hrs for your wk of vacation you could end up with 4day trips on both sides of the week(minus the 2 extra days), so sure lots of days off, but if your seniority cant hold the 4 days off both sides you are at 9 off in a row

If I was a junior CA with line bidding, and I have 7 days of vacation, how do I get 20 days off in a row? Same way you do it with PBS. You aren't senior to hold it so you swap and drop.
Like line bidding, if you are senior to hold it, you get it

And then you would drop the days if they are green. ..or use float vacation request to drop a trip..or swap once IOT and DOT open...etc

After your 5th anniversary you get a third week and another 28hrs the next calendar year. We have weeks and hours it’s hard to explain how it’s used to an outsider without seeing it in practice. Year 10 we stay at 3 weeks but we get another 14hrs. Top line is 5 weeks and 140hrs. This is all current book. No changes to accrual in the TA
