Regarding the flow ?
A contractual violation isn't necessary to prove to demonstrate this point. Yes, they can contractually withhold, but did so for the very reasons I described in that post which is essentially because they can. They don't need a viable excuse (and with present staffing, didn't have one) and that reality is as much of an accurate indicator of the future then a contractual violation would be, in some respects more so. Anyone who would either disregard that reality or rationalize that with semantics like you are is again, simply setting themselves up for disappointment.
As for contractual violations in general, well, let's face it. Envoy management's record there is well, shall we say less then ideal ? If semantics are your foundation in this respect, I think your house of flow is very shaky indeed, but you are the occupant and so whether you sleep with a window open or strap yourself to the bed is your choice. Personally, based on what I've seen as of late, I'd be sleeping on the porch if it were me.
