"Those travelers who don't get to fly are frequently entitled to denied boarding compensation in the form of a check or cash."
Eh. No. We're talking about the point at which this became Involuntary.
The same site you link to has no mention of vouchers when it's involuntary, which is also the subject of my initial calculation and quote.
As this article, and many others have stated, this is but one of the issues with the handling of this situation, that United (though not the only airline by any means) has been quite happy to perpetuate the myth that airlines "only" have to offer vouchers. They can choose to offer vouchers for voluntary denial.
They are REQUIRED to ONLY offer check or cash for IDB situations.
