Business travel is close to a standstill, and a lot of people will, like you, replace their plans for long haul flying by domestic or regional travel. In short, the demand for P is likely to be minimal, and the cabin was never a big revenue generator in the first place, more of a prestige generator. Right now, this simply is not the priority and realistically, I suspect that all major airlines will drastically reduce their F offering throughout the crisis, however sad this may be to many.
