The issue is that Mr Francis stated often, and on his recent web chat, that 'old fleet' will not be starved of work and left to die.
Clearly the BASSAists do not believe that, nor it seems do the antiBASSAist such as yourself. So if those who support BA reckon I'll have a quick and financially imprudent death, and those who don't support BA also believe this, what the hell should I believe?
Why should I trust that it will take 10 years for Mixed Fleet to be operating 40% of the routes.
