I asked them to humour me and book it anyway - they conferred some more, then came back and said ok but it’s my responsibility if I miss the return leg.

So I suspect it must be a legal booking and it was actually the buggy multi city 120 min restriction causing issues, but curious to hear people’s thoughts. Maybe they did me a favour.

Thanks

The agent is talking rubbish. MCT at LBA for this is 30 mins Scheduled turnaround at LBA is usually 40-45 mins. If something is below MCT it wouldn't be bookable to start with, never mind bookable and then gets cancelled later.
