I could not find anything on it, so I'm assuming that there is no such thing, is this true?

My question is this: Is this part of the normal procedure? That DL makes up for canceling your flight, by only putting the passenger in First Class? That doesn't make sense, right? Since they cancel flights all the time. I think there was a mistake, because on my flight from DCA to STL on Dec 23rd, I got on their standby upgrade list and got upgraded, so I'm thinking the computer logged me in as a full fare First Class passenger.
