Because the other airline's flight may be too late if it's time sensitive that the crew member travel. I was not talking about pulling someone out of a seat who's boarded, I was referring to a situation where it becomes necessary to transport at crew member to another location and they will be booked on the flight even if it causes an over sale and when it comes down to the wire the crew member will go and a pax will be left behind. The way I thought the post read was that there were circumstances where the mustgo status wasn't really mustgo but it actually is.
