If legacy carriers were willing to hire people who managed to acquire all those ratings through modular route debt - free, although at a certain age, then it would be a strong message to aviation community.
They are managers, they don't give a flying squat about your 'passion' and they shouldn't: their goal is to make profit.

As it has already been established, that you do not have to have a college degree to fly an airplane (it is preferable if you're a fitness instructor, as you probably have more money), sell the job to the highest bidder. And let's keep it real: 99,9 percent of the time flying is pure routine, so you do not have to be a brain surgeon. That 0,1 percent is collateral damage.
