Since mechanically the two options might cost the same to implement, other factors, such customer satisfaction would need to weigh in if E+ is to be preserved at the expense of more revenue through increased seating capacity...
Sorry, I realized after I posted this that there was the potential that it came across that I didn't understand your POV, when in fact I don't understand CO's. I think they knew from the beginning what they intend to do (not necessarily eliminate E+ but definitely not expand it to CO's fleet). I can't see this being a good decision.
