☝️THIS! X10000000000000000

Basically unless the contract requires it (Add out of opentime without modification), you will generally get some lame excuse of how it costs them money to swap, or causes them a potential liability of a reserve, or leaves something in opentime. I've never understood...you want to pick up two days out of four in opentime. They deny it because they don't have a reserve to cover the two days left in opentime (which someone would probably pick up). Ohh, but you have enough reserves to cover the entire four day?? And they wonder why scheduling operation is a trainwreck.
