Frankly, I find your interpretation outrageous - and I wonder if EVERY CRITIC OF WHAT I'M SAYING would like their card to be charged unauthorized (and with no suspicion on his part). Again, when they take your card at check-in, they VERBALLY state it's for "incidentals" (and this verbal statement serves to overrule whatever they may have planted in their standard fine print)
I have no clue what "interpretation" you're referring to. Are you talking about the English definitions of the word current and the word future? Sure. Look in any dictionary and there's my support. If you think the definitions are "outrageous" then I really don't know what to tell you.

(See my screen name? The word "editor" isn't there just for giggles. I have a college degree and 25+ years of practical experience as an editor. The precise and accurate use of language is what has enabled me to earn a living for my entire career.)
