GA's want to get the plane out on time, can be lazy, ....
What's really annoying is if I'm on the bubble (not very often) and ask the GA if FC has BOARDED full, they will often just tell you FC has checked in full. I was traveling through LAX at the end of May with a +1 and was 4/5 out of 6 for 4 seats according to the app and GIDS and told the GA that one of us would take the FC seat but he precedes to tell me "that there would be no FC for me tonight" and only 3 seats remained (I glanced up at the GIDS while he told me this and nothing had changed 4 & 5 for 4 seats). About 2 min later he calls me up and tells me I have one seat left (Shocker!) and I tell him again I'll take it.
