As far as unintended consequences to the company, I used LOA 13-13 to take flying from an FO who had been subjected to forced flying on reserve due to another LOA (LOA has since expired). He later told me, he flew less than half what they had 'forced' on him because I wasn't the only one using LOA 13-13 to exploit the company for more money.

I'm sure others have similar stories where they figure out how to use these LOAs to their advantage.
Commuter Hotels, displacement protections, unrestricted OT, cancelled OT premiums. Seem like LOAs that help the pilot group. Although they were Band-Aids to stop the bleeding for a little longer.
