Trafalgar. Read my post carefully, I am suggesting that in the scheme I outlined (ie wait until your number comes up on the base and then do your Command) nobody would do anything 'out of seniority'. In my scheme ONLY. Typically, you misread something and shoot from the hip in a rude and childish way. I'm not brain damaged, I'm just putting forward a suggestion that would offer a solution to guys who prefer to stay on a base as an FO forever. Nobody would jump any numbers at all. They would just do their Command course from the base when their turn came up.
