So the OP's rant is based on a misunderstanding.
I would suggest you to re-read my message. AF/KL (and AZ) deny access to PREFERRED SEATS, as well as EC seat in the case of KL, to other elites.
I never mentioned Economy+ (Premium Voyageur, Classica Plus) as I know very well these to be different classes of service.
My rant stands there, unsullied. Our published benefit is worth nothing except on DL.
