I think you are missing the point. Nobody says that promotion is a right, but being elbowed out when you have all the requirements apart from 3 years in the company sucks.
All we want is a chance to do the course. Instead we are being passed by (some) people who have command on nothing bigger than a 320/MD90/737, have only flown regionally and in some cases haven't even operated HF! (I kid you not).
Most would probably be happy with a level playing field.
