As for the last scenario, yea it's b.s. once given an assignment (RR is considered a trip) they won't just remove it.. it only gets removed if it benefits them or there is something overriding in the contract (a lineholder picking up for open time that was processed after reserve assignments for example)
Sounds like a matter for your rep and grievances committee. Theyll have you file a grievance with dates and times but if the practice is against the contract they'll either get it stopped and you paid, or you'll get paid everytime they do it if they choose not to stop. Be a good item for reserve captains to look out for, since the FOs are too busy in crew rooms begging scheduling to use them out of order because they want to upgrade first in their class (heard outside lga crew room).
If any endeavor FOs are listening who do this, just stop. Reserve has enough problems without you begging scheduling to use you out of order.
