I still figured it was worth a shot since I had to call in anyways (the only open seat on cx.com was 2D even though EF showed only 1A and 1D as occupied). Would have been perfectly happy with 1K had she denied my request though.
I asked the rep to add my MPC number to the booking after the seat assignment was done and she went "oh, okay, so you're Gold? Well I feel better about assigning you to the priority seat!"

My wife plans to share seat with infant in 1a a d 3 yo daughter will bw in 1k.
Should we cnsider the bassinet seat even though i thik the f seat will be big enough for wife and infant to share?
People like 2A (a bassinet seat) on the 77W mainly because there's a wall to the right separating the A row to the rest of the F cabin. I don't think it matters so much on the 744. 1A/1K on the 744 are great seats for two people travelling together imo.
