If the distance doesn't bother you nor your employer, then why should it concern an Immigration officer?

As Vinny mentioned above is correct that if the distance does not affect you and you can afford transport/travelling cost then whats wrong with immigration officer?

It may be that the IO had been asking questions pertaining to the persons status to check if their story tied up. We don't know.

I would not worry about it too much. If you meed the requirements for a residence card, you meet them.
