This is the tub with the pseudo casing layer, about 1/4 in added right on top after mixing.

That's not a casing, that's a top layer. That's to cover the exposed grains and helps for a more even pinset. A casing would be introduced at fruiting.

Incorrect.  "Pseudo-casing layer" is the correct term for thin layer of bulk substrate materials applied to the bulk substrate immediately prior to spawning to bulk.  A thin layer of organic materials that's been applied to the bulk substrate after full colonization is known as standard-average casing layer/cover.

The two serve two separate purposes and are applied at two separate times. 

The purpose of the psuedo casing is to guard the bulk substrate's moisture content during spawn run , as well as, to keep any exposed grains from drying out.  The purpose of standard casing layer is to aid in substrate surface micro climate during fruiting.

You're right,

Thanks for the heads up :super:
