There is a big difference to not having "assignable seats" and actually being oversold...Many times even as Platimum I can't get a seat assigment in advance...The agents only have a limited number of seats they have access to assign.

My bet is you will be fine!!

You are right. during one of the conversations with the elite line, I was told that only 60% (or was it 60%) of the seats are preassigned. So if you look at the seating chart, the flight may look empty and yet be prety full.
