More passengers who think anything more than less than the service costs is too much and...
The department which puts these tickets on sale.
If you can't make money getting people to buy a product for more than it costs you are doomed to failure. That is fairly obvious to most children.

It has to be fatigue. Salaries are screwed down so low now that the next step will be to get us working even longer hours in order to reduce the effective hourly rate. I would suspect that the 900hrs limit would come under pressure to be pushed out by airline managers. They will quote the relatively low and constantly reducing incident rates as evidence of how safe the industry is and push for flight time extensions.
Then comes the vicious circle. Earlies to lates to earlies. Longer days. Lack of rest on your days off due to your body not knowing which time zone its in which leads to even greater use of automation which erodes raw data flying skills even more.
