This is unlikely, given BAs preferred approach to appeasing the passengers already booked in F on these services has been to say 'You can keep the F seat and we'll give you money and or Avios for your inconvenience'.
As posters on this board have shown, there are cases where passengers have had to make extreme efforts to get rebooked in F on an alternative service with this change.
