As apposed to now? Where you have 40 history PHDs all going for a single professor slot... and at the same time have tons of positions go vacant for months because there are no qualified candidates?

It may not be perfect, but it might be better than what we have now... Although, I'm not saying it will be... I'll reserve judgement until the data arrives.

Which is a reasonable assumption to make, since we already know that - in the real world - there are opportunities to move from company to company for a wide variety of reasons.
