I agree, but it happens. Thankfully D1's are limited and if they want to burn them for that, so be it. I have used a D1 while in uniform before and had another non rev come up to me and say they are only for vacation or non-work travel. I laughed.
Eh, that's what D1s are for. I'd only be really peeved if a D1 was used to hop over another pilot for the last jumpseat on the plane.
Seen this happen before as well but ironically the person thought they could jump an AA pilot. I laughed.
