Since there is a lot more room in the overhead compartments since there are less people in J, changes of me being allowed to bring on an 85L backpack that's been compressed by its compression straps?

I know I can get complimentary check-in but that means I gotta carry a third smaller backpack as carryon for my laptop
I carry a super large gaming backpack that can accommodate a 17" laptop and perhaps a small dog. Not sure if it 85L but it is large. I do not use a 17" laptop but sometimes need to lug samples between hotel and customer site, etc. No issues. No one mentions it, no one sizes it and no one weighs it. Then again I have seem Amazing Race style backpacks on board so i guess mine is smaller in comparison.
