That is the official stance from BA. Although I would take that with a pinch of salt, it seems like they’ve just put that in place so people won’t moan about getting SH cause they can just say it’s due to performance. As always, they will just place you where they need you, if they happen to need to fill a lot of SH slots and you perform very well in the sim, you still might get offered a SH position.
