Good luck with that argument in any national court in the EU.
On the page describing DL's "experiences" e.g. D1, all the way down to BE, and the accompanying FAQ, I count the use of the word "upgrade" in connection with C+ on seven occasions.
This is a DL-created issue. The people who write is marketing materials are carefully reviewed by regulatory and legal teams.
