So for less light I am guessing only row 12?
I just flew on the 789 in 01A and didn’t find proximity to the galley/light an issue.
12A is close to PE and possible babies in bassinets.
Finally note that AirNZ withholds a couple of seats for load control to allocate - these appear as ‘taken’ but might become available on the day.
On the 77W looks like
04A and 05A are withheld Note the absence of the ‘head’ icon in the screenshot of a dummy booking below, whereas 03A does have the occupied ‘head’ icon.
