This has been my experience as well. I don't agree with the policy but at least they're being consistent? In your case did this flight go out with empty seats in FC? I don't understand why you didn't push for an upgrade after your BP was printed. Every time I've cleared standby and want to try for an upgrade, the upgrade list is 20 people deep and they already started processing those before I even got a confirmed economy seat.
