Is it in the contract that you must be appropriately rested for a deadhead flight, and ready to take command at all times?
Honestly, it just sounds like some idiot doesn't like the thought of people deadheading in first class/business class, and enjoying a nice, relaxing flight. Maybe next, he'll find a reason to ban you guys from watching movies and eating the meals.

Quite right. Which is why this policy will only apply to line swine flight crews. All the other employees who DH around, including managers, can drink their face off. Because 'Safety'.

Someone is taking it out on pilots for some other reason.
