There's no way it costs them 30k to train someone in the right seat of a 402.

Here's the relevant excerpt from my in house training for a Metroliner PIC type. That was a fair contract.
They aren't charging 30K to train somebody to fly right seat in a 402. I guess my post that you quoted wasn't clear.
They are obligating 30K to keep a new captain on board for a year while they train somebody to replace them.
Don't like it? Fine. Don't work there. But it makes financial sense if you're running a piston twin operation in a world of jets that is hurting for pilots.
And, again, since apparently nobody reads anything on here from start to finish, I have no idea if 30K is a justifiable number much less how they generated it beyond the theory it's large enough to scare people into not leaving.
