Poor choice of words, or did they actually change that policy?
No, it's changed. If I put it all together:

- non-Altitude members lost preferred seats for Latitude fares
- *G lost bulkhead seats on Flex fares
- E35K lost bulkhead seats on Flex fares
- E50K gained access to all preferred seats on Flex fares (North America/Sun), but lost bulkhead seats for international
- 50% discount for E35K/E50K when they have to pay

E75K (Flex) / S100K (all fares, including AE) remain as before
