They're similar in that the affected player bypasses assignment to the active roster in both scenarios. (This would be important if, for instance, the Insects didn't have the cap space to sign Bennett to the active roster at his full salary, but could only accomodate the 1/2 of his salary that counts when on IR) Again, I don't really see a problem... but like you said, it's not really covered in the rules. I was just suggesting that maybe it should be covered in the rules.
Allowing lateral trades from IR to IR, I think there are related issues to resolve. Example, a player is required to stay on IR for 4 weeks after he's first declared. Does this 4 week period reset when a player is traded?
