Looking at my upgrade chances on an AA transcon from SFO > JFK, from MCE to business.

The "available classes" show at least 6 open in J, but when I check the seat map it shows that all seats are occupied. Searching AA.com shows that business is still available for purchase.

Usually, it's the other way around when people have purchased a ticket but have not picked a seat yet, so I'm not sure what to make of things in this order.

Any suggestions or thoughts?
I am not an AA expert (anymore), but given that FIrst appears wide open, my guess is they are willing to oversell business and then operationally upgrade if they remain oversold in business at the time of departure.
