One weakness of AF is indeed that at time of booking you don't know for sure what cabin you will be flying in. The price remains the same but the level of comfort is significantly different.
This cabin upgrade program has been lasting forever and it is annoying to have no consistency on the level of comfort. My opinion: either you execute a plan or you don’t. But not stop half way.
They did have a plan and execute it. They do not appear to think upgrading the older business class used on low premium yield routes was worth the cost. (I note that upgrading cabins like this is extremely expensive).

Last point, I flew 777 COI in April and it was the old cabin. Are you saying they all have been upgraded now?
Not all 777 in the fleet, but all 777 that match the specifications as stated yes.
