However, if I attempt a booking for F seats all of a sudden there are several seats in EACH flight available!

Wondering if this is an effort to market FCM ? Since even though no seats show the Gold Medallion is still receiving option to Upgrade to First Class seats!
Maybe that is one of the reasons Delta no longer allows Expert Flyer to show their inventory as well?
