IVDs are yet one more optional tool available to us to make our lives just a bit better. I love them.
They are great for time off but light on credit for the trip dropped and not good for credit average when trying to rework a schedule. As you stated, when the undesirable vacation week is left as a partial week it is low for line construction also. Not a huge deal but not great either.
