I asked and it's hard to get intent from emails but it appeared to me that I was being put in my place.
Basic summary - 40 per class wasn't a fixed number, they're hiring exactly what they're told to (39,42,24,26,32??), few guys no show, and there's no known training bottlenecks.

Quit bothering the cubicle dwellers slice and get back to driving the bus!

Also stated a few comments ago, “A320 training is very backed up right now so that may be the unspoken reason that the classes have been smaller for the the last 3 starts.“ Makes sense.
First 2 class drops averaged 22% for the A320. Last 3 class drops averaged 13% for the A320. Kind of lends credence to that statement.

Can’t speak to anyone else but I am in the Bus pipeline and will have about two weeks from end of INDOC to ground.

Yeah, but for the next 2 years, I’d wager the bulk of retirements will be from the 320 fleet. I’ll check the age charts if I have time.
