That CX is using some 4-class 77W but not selling F is not new.
W should get some feedback from the LHR flight that started 6 December.
I did not do any dummy booking to verify this. All I know is some of the 77W regs that are used determine whether it's a 3-class or 4-class 77W.
Much of the older aircraft and a few KQ* planes (QG, QH, QI, QJ, QK, QU, QV, QW) for example are 4-class 77W's, which have F, but maybe what you're saying is that they're deploying the 4-class 77W with F, but just NOT selling F, correct? LAX has been using a few older KP* planes (i.e. KPE).
SFO (and all flight numbers based on the days they are operating) are exclusively using 3-class 77W, WITHOUT F, meaning many of the KQ* birds, KPY, KPZ, HNR for example.
Before the pandemic, there was a time when sometimes LAX routes would use 3-class 77W without F, but only 2 SFO flights were 3-class 77W and the redeye flight was the only one with F.
