You have a distaste for people simultaneously booking offers, even if they fulfill their "normal" play. Plus, with CET's dismantling and new casinos opening, we are actually entering a fine era to start massive comp whoring, so if anything, it's time to gear up and abuse the various systems to the best of your ability.
As to free play for sports betting, that would require a three-month survey and a handbook to answer properly. Offshore, you can get free play based on both number of bets and amounts, and also (some places) partial rebates on losses in a time period. In Las Vegas, there are some free play arrangements made for some people some places. The free play can be used in the casino or the sports book. I can't answer for all places for all people. Many sports book have their own separate arrangements even if they are technically part of the casino. Others (Cantor, William Hill) make their own arrangements with players.
