It seems to me that this is more like treating a hold as a true reservation
than a hold. It's saying "This item will go to this patron on this date, so
nobody else can have it on that date". Kind of like reserving a conference
room.

Now, whether we should have that behavior or not is a the real question or not. 

This link is for another ILS and at seems to explain Holds vs Reserves vs
Reservations pretty well:
