Somewhere in the rules I just saw a few days ago ti was stated that such a trip uses BOTH AUS und EINreise- and as DE you most likely know they are Prinzipienreiter that takes the rules too seriously.
Plan till after 1/5 and use that Deutschlandticket for much cheaper-but not in ICE
I think that was with the paper pass or the early days of the mobile app.
The app now only works on travel days and does not assess whether you cross the border in that travel day twice, once or not at all, simply that you travelled for some or all of a day in your Country of Residence. That adds 1 to the counter for COR days. Once it has detected 2 days use in your COR it will block any further use in your COR.
Although I have never crossed in and out in the same travel day I have used the same pass for 2 inward journeys with no problem, and yes the counter said 2/2.
I am sure if pass holders were losing both days for crossing their COR in and out in the same travel day we would have heard more on the Community.
