Good may lead the way but not with overhead bin space by crew.

It’s a tough call. I don’t like it either, but the bags have to go somewhere and I’d prefer if they don’t check bags (unless their NRSA or NRSP). I’ve been in the situation a few times where we have to wait for a crew member from another flight; it would be a pain if they have to recover a checked back.
