I think you've hit where people should have a legitimate gripe with WN. Flight schedules that are possible to make shouldn't be cancelled no matter how tight the timelines look to be - it's more the "booking two transcon flights two hours apart"-type scenarios that WN should focus with their decision to enforce this portion of the CoC.
