My understanding is that I wouldn't be able to cancel the flight on Saturday and get a full refund under risk-free in this scenario. (Apologies if I misunderstood this)
Yes you can get a refund. The DOT rule doesn't mandate this. (The rule only requires if bought more than 7 days prior) However DL has implemented a more generous version.
