Seems odd for there to be so many blocked seats suddenly? Could these be a temporary or are things looking grim for me now?

Any prior experience or knowledge on Blocked and Priority seats you could share is appreciated!
Around 3 days prior to departure many/all seats will turn into blocked or priority on EF for Cathay.

In my experience, blocked seats are still unoccupied/unassigned.
