There can be a difference between the extra amount one is willing to pay for FC (versus coach) at the time of ticket purchase and what one is willing to accept to move after boarding from the selected FC seat to some random seat (assume middle seat at the rear of the aircraft) in coach, especially if it's a case where a meal will be served in FC but it's too late to purchase food to consume on board, to bring one's own pillow and blanket, etc.
