Now if only KVS would show the upgrade inventory as well (Expertflyer does but it, in turn doesn't show DL award inventory.)

And season of the year. And, very possibly, when there is a big convention in town; or on homecoming weekend; or during Mardi Gras; or during Cherry Blossom time. DL likely knows when a destination becomes popular and adjusts availability and award level accordingly.

Yeah Delta doesn't seem to release a set number of LOW tickets per flight in advance. It will sometimes be at ZERO all the way until 3 days before departure then they will dump some LOW seats in...maybe
