If pilots asking money for fatigue, hire more pilots, lots of them. Then greedy ones cannot demand any more. There are more 777s operated by other carriers with lots of well trained pilots, and those pilots should join in a heartbeat.

Money is not the problem for this well run profitable numbers company.
It can spend $2 Billion/year on marketing, advertising and bad mouthing other airlines.
It can take two B777s and a A380 every month.
It can have dozens of routes with average load factor of 34%.
It gives away economy seats at throw away prices.
Its premium cabins are filled with state officials, reward FFPs and other free upgrades.
Unlimited supply of Dom and Hennessy.
None of these are characteristics of a well run for-profit commercial entity.

While throwing away money on so many things just to show off, why be stingy on actual humans who are the most important factor of flight safety aspect.

You ability to distinguish fatigue from tiredness means nothing to 62 fatalities and their families.
