No one is pissed off at all.
They may not call it banding anymore, however the principal remains the same. You sit in a competitive pool of applicants until you get a tap on the shoulder to goto Flight screening. Someone may pass the entry tests at the recruiting center, but not score high enough to get picked to goto Flight screening, as better candidates leap frog said person with higher scores.
The name may have changed, however the concept remains the same.
Personally I couldn’t care less about your particular situation, I’m just stating how the system works overall.
Good luck which ever way you go in your flying career, it’s a brutal industry.
