Delta (or AA, or UA) will not try to keep you together; the intent of BE tickets is to allow passengers to sacrifice conveniences like sitting together and checked bags in exchange for a rock bottom price.
Now, if you were price shopping Main Cabin for $779 or C+ for $843, I would say the extra legroom is definitely worth $64.
