Some interesting points and I agree to an extent, with your first point.

Those that went on strike have not got away scot free, as you put it, they have lost money. That is a consequence of IA. As I said in previous posts on the old thread, I have not found any case law that has set a precedent, for a business to remove a benefit from a group of employees who have taken part in IA, but are only part of a bigger group, who did not. I am not saying that it hasn't happened. If it has and you can find it, my argument fails.
