It's not cynical, I simply know ALPA politics and how the system works. If the intent of DALPA was to craft a framework for the future combined list and joint contract, there were many things they could have done to get the support of the NWA pilots in that endeavor. Instead, they didn't even speak to the NWA pilots about their side deal until it was already made.
