Purely speculation.
My guess is that while the guinea pig is in for longer getting certification the others will continue to be retrofitted without P+ and have it added later. As P+ is replacing E+ seats that retro-retro fit shouldn’t take long at all.

My my question is regarding the 77W. There is one remaining new delivery due in Q4. Will that be delivered with P+? It would make sense, as certification for the P+ config would then be done on that ship pre-delivery and the retrofits of the 17 in service wouldn’t be held up.
