If I redeem into D, is there a fee to change to A? Would that be viewed as a cancellation and rebooking, even if passenger name and route and date are the same?

12.3 suggests that booking code changes are not permitted
12.3 Permitted changes are limited to date and time of a relevant flight and are subject to capacity limitations. Name changes are not permitted. You may incur a service fee to make a permitted change to Your Reward Flight booking or Reward Upgrade Flight booking or an additional charge to cover taxes, fees and charges.
Whether that is followed in practise I do not know. F0 A0 J4 suggests to me that A seats are unlikely to be released but you may be more familiar with this than me.
