This is the key reason most businesses block BE fares. While I suppose that it doesn't matter on tickets costing < change fee, it can add up for a business over time. These tickets are wholly inflexible other than for involuntary reroutes, e.g. IRROPS. You can lose a whole lot of miniscule savings having to buy a new ticket at walk-up fares.
