Obviously you could model this mathematically , just a fairly complex calculation

I think the guesstimate that JFO time will go to 5 , just doesn't pass the smell test. An increase of 67% just because one more SO (& one less FO) is required on some ULR flights
You’ve completely ignored half of Veruka’s argument (the part about the airline barely growing), and minced their words for the part about SO crewing requirements. Veruka Salt was not just suggesting that there will be one more SO on some ULR flights, but a push for 2x SOs for ALL long haul flights.

Cherry picking to feed your rose tinted glasses at its finest.
