everyone was accomodated - potentially everyone had a seat. Schedules have to be kept - planes have to leave at certain times to get somewhere else at a certain time. It's definately a balancing act for the (one) GA to be both on the plane to give upgrades to someone that went ahead and boarded with the elite pre-board instead of waiting for a seat to maybe be empty and also wait and give that last paid F customer his seat.
