Regardless of the comparison to UA F, having flown new NH / LX C in recent months (sold and marketed as "business class"), there's just no way that CO can call itself a "hybrid" business/first product. It's a nice, competitive C product, plain and simple.
If anyone could do claim a "hybrid", it would be SQ with their new C, or NH with their Business Staggered product.
