No, I think after 25 years I have a pretty good grasp. In 25 years NK has not been close to any legacy contract, at least as far as pay goes. Not expecting that to change isn't defeatist, it's being a realist. Voting the TA down would just have delayed it more than we could recoup, and that is assuming we would get more. I don't believe it's worth the wait. You are free to find that defeatist, but you are a minority.
In 2017 we were a lot further from DL than we are now.

The TA ratification might very well save us going into the TPA and SLI. It also might completely hose us if the merger fails and we have to go back to the table while management arbitrarily slides first year pay to industry leading rates.
Nobody knows for sure, and pointing fingers while saying "I told you so" is not really a thing at this point in the process.
Gotta wait and see how things shake out.

The yes versus no vote "what if" argument is way too nuanced to be had at this point.
