That way you don't totally ditch him/her, by saying "no I'm not with anyone," or eliminate the possibility of a one-person available upgrade, but leave it in the airlines' hands!
that's a pretty good idea. But back to katja....I think you were completely right to take the upgrade alone. If it were a friend or family member I might feel differently, but for one of my colleagues? Sit him/her in 24E for all I care
