Please correct me if I am wrong, but it appears to me that the main argument being put forth by QF pilots is that by accepting a lower pay scale, Jetstar pilots are setting a precedent that could have flow on effects to QF mainline. The concern being that QF management will then reduce the salary levels for mainline crew. Therefore, Jetstar pilots should simply out gun the company and refuse the offer until a more substantial package is on the table in order to protect the conditions of the mainline employees.
Lets take this step by step. Over to the QF pilots for the next exchange.

If you look at the wider picture, it is far from just QF pilots who will be affected.
