The LATAM birds (currently 35L) will be converted to this as well.

I’m assuming this is how Delta is planning to fight weight restrictions that often necessitate a fuel stop on the return.
They usually block about 100 seats on these flight on the return, the 359's have not been working out for DL like they wanted.
