For those wondering, it's JDiver reporting a rumor of exactly our fears, and noting it's totally unverified. And also noting JonNYC disagrees.
I did report that rumor. And

Today, member shadymg posted here:

...Basically what she said, off the record, was that technically they have started training their CSRs to say that Economy seats when using an SWU can only be upgraded to the "next cabin" which would be Premium Economy.

OTOH, JonNYC doesn’t agree.

Caveat: as indicated by the thread title, this is a rumor without any verification or hard data.
The rumored 77W FAT-SZX flight starting this summer is also a rumor without any verification or hard data.
