Well, I think EC is a "real" Y+ product (not sure what you mean by "E+"), but it's not W. In order for it to be W it would need to look like, well, domestic F (so ultimately I agree with you). It's nice that DL is enhancing EC but I'm still not excited by it.

Unfortunately (or fortunately), DL would have to price a TCON W product about the same as B6's J product (to account for the Corporate Discount), and if you're going to spend that sort of money why not get J instead of W?

OTOH, buying 2 adjacent EC seats might be a decent compromise.
