At red rock station the small blind is definitely live.
Even more perplexing: a few times I got up to go to the bathroom or take a call after posting the BB, but missing the small, and they let me post the SB - live- on the button. Which makes it so if you ever needed to get up for one hand only (the bathrooms are really close to the limit tables) you could abuse this rule. Other times though they kept the button where it was, made me post a SB just to the left of it, and had three blinds. So it depends on the dealer.
I hope I am explaining this correctly.....

I have seen it live in rooms with small games where they don't bother to know how things "should" be.

For being a fairly big room with what are considered to be good dealers, there is a lot of variation in what the dealers think are the rules there.
For instance, I have seen dealers still as of three weeks ago (when I last played) not know what the friggin cap was on a limit game betting round!
Another example: there is always confusion about the "unlimited betting when it is heads-up rule" - it doesn't have to be headsup going into the street to be unlimited like at some rooms - it just has to be headsup when the cap is reached. I've seen that applied both ways at RR.
