I hear ya. I just didn't want the guy to pick up a trip and plan his commute based on the show time of that trip. Yes the trip disappears from open time, but scheduling can still throw it back into open time to "ping" the cell phones of those trying to pad their wallets.
"A" reserve is really the only true way to keep that paring... on the first day of course
