I checked the EK website to see if those are only for sale to high status members (I have no status on EK) like on BA but found no such mention - it appears EK is happy to sell those to anyone.

Any idea why these seats are blocked and what can I do?
Yeah they're blocked because you have to pay that's how paid seats appear, once you pay they become unblocked for you.
