That's kind of like saying 'watching sports is so dumb. Just tell me who won"
People change their minds every day. One man's trash is another man's treasure. Do you know how many people screw up their bid on a regular basis? At the very least, it allows people to look and say "Wait, I didn't want GUM FO!"
Think about the standing bids that people forget about. "Wait, I don't remember bidding EWR320CAP at 100%"

Agree with all the above, and I'll add my perspective 'cuz for me 756 cap wasn't even on my radar, but when I saw almost 40 slots show up on a Snapshot and me in the top percent it made me go "hmmm" and ultimately pull the trigger. If not for Snapshots I would have missed this round and maybe had to wait a long time 'til the next one. Who knows??

I do it for all the extra pay! Haven’t seen it yet but sure it’s coming….
I’m just like any other line swine. I do what I’ve done on the SSC in the past and now PDR and LEC Grievance to help my fellow pilots. Some 20 years worth.
At times, pilots who just want to rant about X,Y and Z gets tiring but I seem to keep going. At 58, it won’t be too long before my wife says enough.
Need volunteers for all you folks out there. Please step up!

Really no idea, BUT I did see Kirby on TV talking about how we needed way more inter-hub carry plus carry to Hawaii when asked about the return of PW 777s, and then, of course, there's the question of when/if China re-opens to U.S. carriers.
