My legs are physically longer than the pitch in regular economy, so I buy C+ to ensure that I have the space I need. There ought to be space to reaccomodate folks who paid when something goes awry or they need to make a change.
Another perspective is that C+ seats shouldn't be given early to PMs if there will be DMs on the flight who want C+ and will be unable to get these seats.
