Gone down 21 positions on upgrade list

Hi,
i did check in early and was on position 4 on the upgrade list with 4 open seats this morning on transcon 789 using PP on an itinerary with connection.
I switched seats and suddenly the upgrade list for the transcon connection says CPU requested (instead of waitlisted) and I jumped to position 25.
is that usual behaviour after switching seats on a connection after check-in?
I will survive - no question…. But Polaris instead of eco for 5.5 hrs flight would have been a treat….

if there is a similar post/question I’ve overseen that - sorry…
appreciate any tips or ideas…
Michael
