With the advances in our ageing process we will be living longer and thjere is a good chance you may be a retiree for many more years than you were an active employee. While it won't happen now, what they should have done is created a category for commuting TO work, placing this status above D2 and keeping D2 as it has always been, first come first served for active and retired employees. Fire away ye youngsters, your retirement day will be here in a flash.
