Have they done it already anywhere? A center manager once told me that they never use that one out of fear there will be confusion and mass DOT violations.

No

It's not new, we use it in Feeders. Our OTR drivers use it.
Haven't heard of it being used in Package.....yet.

We were told that, if the current plans hold, XMas Eve will be an air only day.

Apparently your reading comprehension sucks. They were talking about working 70 hours. Not Christmas Eve.

In Feeder the hours are more predictable than in PC. There will be mass scheduling problems with the 70 in 8 days rule.
