That's just a G-GAT aircraft - which has no 1D and 1F - versus the main cohort of A320s which do. You are more likely to be on G-GATs out of LGW, but they ran from LHR during the Pandemic and just reflect their previous airlines before BA obtained these aircraft. The seat plan, at 3 days to departure, will tell you whether a G-GAT is down for the flight.
