That doesn't really answer the question, though, and it is T-16 that I'm willing to take the risk on something displaying J2 on EF and on a ticket which has already been op-upped at T-24, with people already slotted into F, and one that doesn't exactly have any downsides considering Club World Suites are pretty much the same no matter where you get allocated plus the fact I'm already getting a lie-flat and saving the $ I wanted to use to AUP.
Perhaps the better question to ask would be: given one's experience with the 2010 F vs the 2019 CWS hard product on the 77M, which would you go for?
