It also sounds like experience in the system is going to be the main way to understand how it works.
champair has described it well - I'll just add that the reserve block credit is exactly Cap/days in the month down to the minute.
So if cap=90hrs in April, the reserve block gets 90/30=3hrs per day. The block is 14 days (4 fixed days off and 10 reserve available days) so the whole reserve is worth 42hrs of credit on my example.
