I don't have this post you mention, but I personally know of Copilots offering the company to pay for their upgrade training and offered to fly the left hand seat training for their F/O pay, same way as they have already paid for their F/O RHS training.
Fortunately, this case was not accepted by the company due to pressure from the union, but it shows that it happens and that those who buy their typerating as copilot are willing to go further with this.
