Yeah, I successfully went through the turnstile at Boylston and tried at Kendall, and the new pass worked fine. So I think I just got unlucky with the pass.
The best explanation I can think of for the tripod rule is just that they don't want you blocking off that much space; it's a "moving people around safely" issue. That would also be part of the explanation for the "no floodlights" part of the rule, with "don't blind the train driver" being the other important justification.
