Unfortunately trying to drop Sinclair stations piecemeal (or otherwise) would break enough markets to attract regulatory attention.

One just does not drop ABC from a market and expect nobody to notice.

I clearly said: "as they secure alternative broadcast arrangements in each area"

TV broadcast tower agreements are not ossified. Every year some station switches from one to another. Comcast buying NBC led to quite a spate of that in several markets. It can be slightly disruptive on the fringes (like Comcast/NBC*) or it can go unnoticed or even improve reception.
