Nevertheless ignorance is not a valid legal excuse... And they have been warned...

Ahmmm ... a shift in a couple of passengers from Y to PEY will hardly make a difference in flight balancing.

Look, I can't speak to any relevant cultural differences, but I would think that if confronted with the choice of (a) pay $500 or (b) move, few passengers would try to propose an option (c). And it's certainly a "friendlier" option for the FAs to pursue.
