Main cabin "unavailable" on wide-open flights?

I'm looking at some flights in August SFO-MIA return (specific dates are 8/18, 8/20). Seeing something that seems odd.

The main cabin is wide open. Disclaimers about the validity of seat maps aside, there are like 4 or so seats taken on the flights I'm looking at.

Looking a booking, main cabin is coming up as "unavailable." Looking at EF shows Y7, but all other coach classes are 0.

Is this likely a glitch, or are AA not willing yet to release coach seats for the flight (even the Y7 I see on EF doesn't seem to be reflected on their booking page)?

Also seeing some similar results on flights into FLL for the same period.

Cheers.

Wait until tomorrow...most likely a routine weekend schedule change. Once loaded, cabins, seats and fares etc. should return to normal.

Agreed, schedule change this weekend was very big.

Thanks both. Makes sense to hold inventory availability until things settle.

Although it is odd the F is available to book for these same flights.

Cheers.
