Does WN still have a policy that it neither permits nor prohibits saving seats? If so, what does that mean, in practice?

Let's say I board a flight, and someone is purporting to save a seat (or, perhaps, several seats). I say "I would like to sit in that seat, please." The seat-saving passenger responds "I am saving that seat for my friend who is in Boarding group C." I respond: "WN has an open-seating policy and I can select any seat I want, and I am sitting in this one" -- and I proceed to sit. What does WN flight attendant do?

I an NOT saying that I would ever actually do this. My question is just about how WN flight attendants actually handle these situations, when they arise.
