Seat blockage in J

Was wondering why LY always block 10K in J on flights operated by a 738/739, the baby bassinet is on the other side. maybe a crew rest seat?

Sometimes I see the off duty pilot seating in that seat.

I like the comment on he Air Marshal. Because there are so many (wrong) theories about their seat no one knows where they are.

Back on topic. On short hops where the crew don't use a crew rest seat, is it a smart strategy to pick the seat next to 10K and have a good chance of having an empty seat next to you? Also, from what I understand the right side of row 10 on the 737-800 reclines much more than the other seats in the cabin.

I think anything in row 10 is good. First to be served, first to get off, no recline into your personal space. The recline and leg room on the left side was more than adequate, both in 737-8 and 737-9.
