What are the immediate implications of the Rotterdam court's decision regarding the implementation of the new Dutch pension system?

A Rotterdam court today rejected a lawsuit by a retired pilot against his pension fund, BPF Loodsen, allowing the fund to transition to the new pension system on January 1st. The pilot argued for a two-month delay, citing insufficient time to review the pension changes; however, the court found that the 8% increase in his pension negated the need for a delay and that recalculations could occur after the transition. The court acknowledged the short timeframe but deemed it insufficient grounds for postponement.
