Seat shifters - what’s going on here?

One window seat blocked on 777 out of LGW. Half full cabin.

Neither check in on Lounge service desk could shift me into window seat. Said speak to Cabin Manager on boarding who’s try to help.

On boarding there’s someone sitting in that seat. It’s still blocked on EF and crew iPad.

Seat next to it is marked Staff. CM speaks to them and they say they’ve been moved from a middle pair.

Apparently nothing can be done.

So I’m stuck with a crap seat.

CM doesn’t really know what’s going on.

Any my ideas what’s happened?

and why does BA block so many seats on a half full flight? My guess is to hold them for late booking status pax like me?
