The case has nothing in common with Ex-Cairo tickets and skipping the first cupon.

Why you always pronounce that ex XXX has nothing to to with that cases ?
In general that's the same thing ! Only that we here not have only 2 segments ( where one is not flown ), There you have some more segments and the pax has not flown one or more. But the legal framework is more or less the same. Customer pays for something, and don`t use part of it.
I know you see it otherwise, your argument is, that this are special market fares.
How do you see it if someone books an ex TIP to SYD rt. for around 2200 Euro in F, and only use the rturn portion of that.? This should at least be the same as a simple FRA-PAR-FRA, where one only use the return.
