Why? Just to punish people who buy BE? You are not going to move enough seats to be able to fit another row. I highly doubt AA would reconfigure the whole plane to give each economy seat another 1/2" of legroom. I guess they could make an additional row toward the back MCE without re configuring the whole plane, but I am not sure it would be very popular.
