The pilot should be able to reasonably choose and know far enough in advance for the return day to be useful.
You assumed wrong. There is no requirement to select three different days. That was even posted on EL awhile ago from a grievance that was settled a couple of years ago over that very issue. Did you read it? You quote everything else on EL, I figured you would have noticed it.
