Well, the answer to this is largely is it certain that the government will cave, allow the merger to go through (which really only benefits lawyers and investment bankers) with a minor settlement, likely only effecting DCA slots?

The underlying question is - should the merger be blocked permanently (as, IMO, it should) would US leave *A? Such a move would hurt UA, but I'm not sure it would help US except vis-à-vis UA.
