Therefore, there is no requirement to commute to long call (or being out of position for a long call), only the three categories of assignments above. Commuter protections should apply to all 3 just as a line holder is protected.

Map out all of your commuter options over the course of 24 hours, compare those to the SC/FSB/Trip assignment call out times... see if there are any gaps in coverage for 2x flights to get you there. If no, enjoy your time home. If yes, you may have to get creative.

It would be nice to have something like the 10am rule for long call. 13 to 14 hours notice between 6pm and 10pm would be nice.
You don't appreciate flying for a passenger airline until you've sat through an overnight sort at a freight hub.
