I would imagine they would implement protections in against that i.e no regression to protect a pilot's current position. Soon enough all link pilots (Dash and ATR) will have one seniority list and the protections built in that stop pilots from the other fleet getting a command before you (assuming you have the hour requirements). They will never take away commands and I would be very surprised if a Jet pilot with a higher number would ever come back to the links to take a command (and that would only affect FO's, not captains).
