Of course they'll consider it back-to-back ticketing, it's the very definition of back-to-back ticketing. While many folks get away with back-to-back ticketing, if I had to bet on one airline most likely to catch it and sanction an FF for using it, Delta would be the one.

This is not true, as I said what you propose is the very definition of back-to-back tickeitng, buying a round-trip ticket with no intention of using the return portion is called throw-away ticketing.
