Correct! MVPG Elite Members are not eligible to select Premium Class seating at booking on discounted Q, O & G fares.

To say an MVPG Elite Member is eligible to select Premium Class at booking would be incorrect. It depends on the fare class purchased.

Starting Spring 2025, MVP Gold 75K and 100K members receive a Complimentary Extra Comfort seat* for themselves and a companion on Hawaiian-operated flights at booking, when available. *Main Cabin Basic excluded
Correct! MVPG75K and MVPG100K Elite Mebers are eligible to select Premium Class at booking on any non-Saver fare class. MVPG are not eligible on all fare classes at booking.

Correct! They are two different things.

The former details a subset of fare classes that are eligible at booking for MVPG, not all are.

The later is saying that 75K & 100K are eligible at booking on any non-Saver fare.

Both are correct, no bugs. The benefit is a feature of Mileage Plan for AS, QX, and OO flights. Is it your position that there would be a carve out for MVPG and MVP Elites only on HA flights?
