Default 34 hour restart

I've been off for both 31st and 1st which satisfied my 34 hour restart. That being said, everything that happened before the 31st is a non-issue (non-contributory) to this new 70 hour cycle that I just started, correct?

Correct. If you had 34 consecutive hours off duty, your recap should read 0 for used hours, and 70 for available hours.

Even though you have a fresh 70 you still have to have your last 8 days worth of log sheets.

I get the whole 34-hour reset from this perspective, here's what I want to know...
It seems that companies want you to stay moving, not doing a reset. If that is the case, why do they push you to run so that you HAVE to reset hours, i.e. give you only enough time to drive hard to drop?
Do companies frown on drivers who take their resets if they want/feel they're needed, meaning, they want you to run at all times except for hometime? :?
