I get your point but will just add a soft disagree as well..
Say you live in DFW, based in DFW, get displaced to IAH. Now youre in IAH and youre dropping IAH trips to pick up DFW...you are helping the company. You are allowing the company to not adequately staff DFW because they can count on all the open time being picked up. So they staff the base less, less reserves needed, and the odds them shrinking the base next round increased; "Hey we got guys who will clean up the open time". So guys picking up out of base because they were displaced really is "cutting off the nose to spite your face; you not only decrease the chance they increase staffing in that base, but probably help the odds the displace more next round.
Force the company to have to staff bases adequately, based on normal pickups.
