yes that is exactly what they are doing. This way they cannot be sued for discrimination. By excluding ALL spouses, they don't run afoul of the law.

I'm not sure how I feel about this; I understand what they are doing, but I don't know that I agree with it.

I personally don't agree with what they are doing, but I do understand it. This is the only way they can follow both the law of the land, in this case DC, and canonical law.
