19.5 Inches as the width which is 2 inches more than normal Y seat. I attached the link to the picture you can have a look.

Not sure about this. But I guess for Silver/Gold booked into Y, the chance to upgrade to Y+ is great. But if you want to be upgraded to business class you have to book Y+ fare at start. And i wuould doubt the upgrade will come as automatic. However I agree with you that the chance for op-up to Y+ would be much more than current op-up to business.
