When you added the Work column to the My Assignments view (displayed on the Tasks page in PWA), you had the option to make the column Read-Only. The default option sets this column to Read/Write, which is what I think you did. The column is Read/Write for team member in your organization who uses the Tasks page to enter progress. If you want to make the column Read-Only for everyone, you would need to open the My Assignments view for editing, select the Work field, and then select the "Make column read only" checkbox.
You are correct that the Work field is not an available field to display in the Details view on the Assignment Details page in PWA. I do not know why this is, but there is no way to work around this odd situation. Whether this is by oversight or by intention, the Work field simply is not available.
Hope this helps.

Thank you again Dale - I thought that was interesting as well, thank you for verifying that it wasn't a mistake on my end re: Work not an available field to display in Details
