It might for some. Yet the "2 cabin" airlines often have a much better J product than the 3 cabin airlines. I generally want to be in the airline's front cabin. I'd rather be there at the time of booking than some illusory chance of a last minute UG to an F cabin. The airlines that have a luxurious F cabin don't generally make it something that one can easily upgrade into.
