They make row 1 put them above row 3. So if you put row 1 luggage above you, as you claim, you wouldn't be able to do so because they'd point you to the next compartment (above row 2-3).
Granted my experience with F9 is limited to one flight but yup, on my flight I purchased stretch seating and didn't have a carry-on and was in Zone 2. Zone 1 was only for those who purchased a carry-on and the GA was enforcing. This was in DEN though with actual F9 employees and we all know contract employees can be wild cards so who knows.
