The issue appears to be one of space on the LCF and the FAL rather then one of wages and benefits.
If Boeing stretches the center section, as they did to get the 787-9, then that will be too long to fit in an LCF so you cannot transport them from the CHS production facility to PAE by air (unless they build a special 787-10-capable LCF).
Also, PAE's assembly bays appear to not be long enough to support a 787-10 in each position. CHS has longer bays (since they were able to build a new FAL rather than work with an existing one).
