It seem pretty obvious that people who want to book flexible rates and then go ahead and book flexible rates probably want a flexible rate. I also see no evidence for what you're suggesting here which is that companies have decided only to offer cheaper inflexible rates that they call flexible. That would really make no sense in a pricing strategy.
