I'd be interested to see a written interpretation that says that. I read it to mean that if a DH takes you over the max FDP, your rest has to be as long as the DH, but not shorter than min rest. So it would never really come into play for us at regionals.

FAR 117.25:
(g) If a flightcrew member engaged in deadhead transportation exceeds the applicable flight duty period in Table B of this part, the flightcrew member must be given a rest period equal to the length of the deadhead transportation but not less than the required rest in paragraph (e) [10hrs w/ 8hr sleep opportunity] of this section before beginning a flight duty period.
