I agree. Two CS agents confirmed this when refreshing my tickets.

My A-list bookings usually have a green A if I remember correctly, maybe the red A indicates it has switched to A+. I think it goes green for A, yellow for EB, and blue for biz select. Maybe an A+ can chime in here for confirmation?
Neither of the CS agents with whom I spoke could say what the A+ icon looks like, so you may be correct here.
