Databricks DBU pre-purchase

Hello there,

are pre-purchased DBU still valid? Can we use it?

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cost-management-billing/reservations/reservation-discount-da...

Can someone please explain how it works in practice, by example?

What if I pre-puchase 100 DBCUs and I use only 80 within 1 year period?

Does it apply on job clusters created within a cluster pool?

What if I use all my pre-purchased DBCUs reserved for 1 year period within 6 months - as I understand pay-as-you-go DBU prices apply, right?
