The important distinction is that the other ideas you suggested are more about ongoing cashflow obligations. That is obviously one of the considerations if I'm going to lend a company money. Are they going to be able to repay their debt on an ongoing basis? I evaluate the probability of bankruptcy and financial distress for the company.
Both things matter, but when you start to think about changing the priority in the event of financial distress, the analysis is a conditional thing. It's conditional on the company becoming insolvent.
