The interim expense reimbursement on outbound only makes sense to me (it was my recollection also but I can't recall reading it anywhere): It's intended to keep you clothed/bathed for a couple days while an errant bag is found or alternate arrangements can be made. Presumably if you're heading home you have the big suitcase called a "closet" or "dresser" or the like that has many more clothes/toiletries than you would need for a couple days.

Ouch.
Amsterdam is a great city/airport though, hopefully your bag enjoyed it's sojourn
