Now upon checking in at the airport if Y is still full but Y+ has seats would that pax then get a Y+ seat for the cost of a regular Y seat.

Could it make sense then to not choose a seat if purchasing just Y and take a roll of the dice.
The problem is you're likely rolling between a Y- middle seat vs a Y+ seat.

No deal for most savvy pax.
