Hence my post.
Would be helpful to know how to get the seats in row 22 assigned in advance of flight day? Are they always blocked until check-in? Cen they be requested by CX diamond? Oneworld elites? etc etc.

People have difference preference. I do not like bulkhead because my movement is limited, but many people feel the other way.
For your question, MPC DM, and perhaps others, can request a bulkhead seat. However, even if you get a bulkhead seat assignment, you can still lose your seat to a family with an infant, and get stuck in a middle seat somewhere instead.
Once I checked in at HKG, there was no aisle seat left except a bulkhead seat. The check-in agent told me she could give to me but I might still lose it when I boarded the flight. I asked for a window seat instead.
