Should main event crew be pinned to the top of the list?

In this scrollfest of an event, it seems obvious that the crew you select over and over should be AT THE TOP.

Maybe it never occurred to the developers, but let's bring it up again.

I can't believe it hasn't been done yet.

I would be opposed to that. For example, in missions 1 2 and 3, I used different event crew for the two passes to clear the rewards for one screen. So my strategy is start with group 1, and beat 2 of the epic rewards, then shift to elite and repeat. The toggle at the bottom is sufficient. Once done, I switch to group 2 (Really, I am swapping out one or two characters), then switch to Epic and clear the last star.
All of that is easy to do when the mission in question is retried, you can swap crew and change difficulty. Mind you, the swapping crew is the tedious part, but my strategy above attempts to minimize that.
On mission 4, I use one group to clear all the stars for all the levels. So the auto change would work there, but that is only one mission out of 4.
Now in Expedition, after the first ticket you want to play backwards. So after clearing all the stars of epic mission 4, I want to play that same mission in elite mode with the same (fatigued) crew. That way the tedious crew selection (because thay are fatigued!) would no longer be.
Why not give us a button for that?
You can already do that. After finishing on epic click play again the then click on the arrows next to epic to toggle between epic/elite/normal.
Wait, what?!?!?
Wow. Just tried it. You are my new hero. That saves so much time and is do much less annoying. I love it. I wish I had known that before I was 8 and a half tickets in.
I wish I had known it eight and a half Expeditions ago..........
It depends on which crew you have. With all 4 of the featured crew I can get by using troi only on M4, so I just do it all all three difficulties to start and use her on all the reward nodes.
Archer and jol can crit all the dip nodes even easier than troi on the other missions.
To quote Captain John Harriman:
May depend on starbase bonus, but I totally agree.
For this expedition, you can save time running m4 epic to normal. And similar for all the rest. Of course, this is dependent on having all 4 bonus crew.
All nodes can be gotten by these four crew. The other three missions need two passes of course to get all stars.
For me I use, Sulu and Troi on m4 epic, then just Troi for rest of stars on mission 4. I do not think, I can get all m4 on epic with just my Troi, but I do not need to try. It does not change the order, I still do m4 epic to normal, m3 epic to normal, etc. And the main crew can Crit all nodes for max VP bonus.
Again because of this expeditions missions. I can run the same crew going from epic to normal. Go backto epic, run different crew from epic to normal to complete m3-m1.
