"No operational advantage." IOW, the bean-counters don't know how to quantify improved safety via increased situational awareness.

Which makes you wonder how many pilots will actually bid it on a whim and a prayer of a few months a year VB only to be forced into NYC/LA for the rest of the year, and the correspondingly crappy NB trips those bases typically have.
Yes, I know, the C will reinvent the industry and have 50 hour legs and do 100 hour day turns to Alpha Centauri and they'll only work 1 day a month etc.

It's speculation on my part, but long range domestic point to point flying is basically scoped flying that RJ's aren't really allowed to do. The Cseries, having no such scope restrictions, can open up a bunch of new markets on thin routes, that RJ's aren't allowed to fly. Maybe for the first few years the Cseries is like every other aircraft, but I think marketing will figure out it is a market growth airplane, not a replacement jet.
