If anything, I think that the new non-refundable and non-changeable Basic Economy fares all the legacy airlines are introducing will actually require even more overbooking, because passengers flying on these ultra-cheap fares will have absolutely no incentive to notify the airline of a change in their plans (since they will gain nothing by doing so).
