- A booking system with 30-minute start times but only 1-hour sessions creates unbookable 30-minute gaps.
- Users can strategically book middle slots to maximize unpaid court time by exploiting these gaps.
- Unlimited cancellations and last-available slot rules allow users to 'slide' bookings forward to secure desired times.
- Granular time increments increase flexibility but can make systems more gameable, reducing profitability.
