Put simply, the more people who join on C Scale, the harder it is for BALPA to help change C Scale and the more pressure is put on the A & B Scale Terms and Conditions. In years to come if you join on C Scale do not be deluded into thinking you will move up to A & B Scale terms and Conditions, at present this just will not happen as there is NO link. A & B Scales will be eroded towards C, not vice err versa.
