But unlike the others, I am One World status.... AA current Platinum and Lifetime Gold. I don't get it. 40 years of flying AA and One World, and now I have to worry that there is a good chance that I will be stuck in a middle seat. Not a happy camper.

dont worry , $$$ can solve problem , the worst case is you pay just may be ~$30 to get some seat at the front and aisle seat , so thats not a big problem.
