The PDB was in regards to the service dropping significantly, on US airlines, who care more about selling stocks than their paying customers on flights. Getting a PDB in FC is becoming more of a granted privilege pending the flight crew wanting to provide that service.
By the way, the A320 is around 23% more fuel efficient than the MD90 and also has a much larger range, but let's not let that get in the way of stating that the engines are the exact same and assuming they're basically the same aircraft...
I am not sure where you got your MD90 information however it is incorrect. The MD90 is actually slightly more fuel efficient then the A320. It also seats more. It uses the same engine that is a option on the A320 with a narrower lower drag tube.
