EK swaps turned down "due to fatigue?"

What's this latest reason being given by our rostering clerks to turn down swaps?

"Sorry, I think you'll be fatigued so therefore I will turn down your swap (no further explanation required)"

So EK can roster you DXB-SFO-DXB-PEK-DXB-LAX-DXB within a 14 day period, but when you want to swap, some rostering clerk is apparently now trained and qualified to tell us when we'll be fatigued..without any further explanation? Are they using their fancy software (that doesn't seem to be around at roster build stage), or is it just another convenient excuse to refuse swaps.

WTF is going on? I have never in a decade seen so many swap requests...obviously the lowest roster satisfaction ever.
