Yes, like you said worst case would be 4 x Short Call for the 6 hours after your original rotations was suppose to sign in. They could assign you a trip 2 hours after you original sign in that departs in 2 hours. So, yes you could be on the hook (short call) for a trip on the original departure day.
Emails have been sent to the LEC. Like you said the definition of IROP has equipment substition listed. All this started taking place the day after schedules went final. I have called b.s. on this but, for right now everyone has been assigned 23k recovery flying.
