So, how do you define the column under "first"? Where it says Flagship? Which has a different price than business?
Except it had the same fare as business class on the next flight when I checked earlier - clicking on days either side of 17th can see $708 as being a business class fare - that seems quite a good indicator; there is also no other flight that has anything less than $1408 for 1st class ; also there is no business offered on that flight on any day that I have seen

It is also very noticeably cheaper than any other 1st class on 3 cabin service

What is it trying to steal? I think it is stupid that it doesnt call 1st class on a 2 cabin aeroplane as business class as just about any airline in rest of world seems to do
