The ability to sell vacation was used extensively by pilots.
I understand how it used to be. 10. gives them that right when its beneficial to the company. This is an out that could be applied to avoid cancelation, not part of the cancelation itself. We have the ability (under certain company controlled circumstances) to sell back vacation now. That was my point. Its not some forbidden thing that some believe.
