So much speculation. And no, I doubt that anyone who reads FT (and thus knows what they COULD get) would move for that.

I am speculating, that's all. But why else would any normal (Non-FT) pax move? But if I had a middle seat, and the GA promised me a good AA seat, I'd move - for 18 minutes. Why would I move from a middle to a middle?
