FAs already have enough to deal with before pushback. Maybe the Captain should do the inviting instead and the First Office can help carry the Elite's belongings too.
Are you saying that you feel that if the plane is fully boarded, and there are suddenly some F no-shows, they should just close the door and leave the F seats empty - without offering them to elites in Y?
