Maybe Parker got the idea of 10-across MCE seating in the 772s from Horton's idea of doing for Y- in the 773s. Just a thought. Here's hoping that he doesn't warm up to the idea of converting the US 319s to Horton's 319 configuration. And btw, that's what I'm basing the "this would have happened anyway" on.
Oh! And I forgot to mention... the newly re-configured 763s... they have one less row of MCE on them. Consider that Horton's "Farewell Gift" to his beloved AAdvantage elites.
