As someone correctly mentioned, why would I think I would be charged an assignment when no one else has tried to juice me in this way for business travel.

As for tantrum, as before merely observations and my reaction to them, but if that's how you choose to perceive it fill your boots, I suspect that won't take you very long.
You do get to find out about this charge before buying your ticket. In the booking process before you get to the payment screen you're asked if you want to choose a seat for cash. So there's no need to be parting with any money if you object to paying for seats and aren't buying a flexible ticket or have status.
