And most airlines do 2-4-2 on the 350. I think there are only a couple of exceptions. They ALL do 2-4-2 on the wider 777/747/380s.

But the upside of having that empty seat is much greater than the downside of it not being empty (as compared to being in the aisle on the 2-side), that even if you weight the probability 20%/80% I'd probably chance the center block aisle.
