Most PAX haven't got the slightest clue about availability, and even PAX with deep knowledge about EF and the likes can't prove an airplane had actual seats available, they can only prove that an airline is still willing to sell seats for that flight, but by how much it is already overbooked is a different story.
I don't know what point you are trying to make but your arguments are getting more and more pedantic. I will leave you to take a guess in this computer age how a passenger could check availability of seats on existing flights.
