Contrary to what Aviation Management thinks they got taught during their work-from-home MBA's, promotions to operate extra capacity is required to support the business case. Stop believing that it is a carrot to sign a sub standard EBA because a fraction of the pilot body will get a seat or type change.
If management could, they would operate all airframes with the cheapest cadets ((in both seats), that they could find - it's got nothing to do with paying a competitive and respectable wage. Do managers also get offered an inferior EBA because Joe Soap down the corridor got a seat closer to the coffee machine...thus
promotions for all as everyone gets to move one seat closer
