Multiple service rumors have surfaced, but without an official statement from Delta, I won't believe it.
Additioanlly, people continue to purchase or "upgrade" to this fare, even without enhanced service. Why should Delta spend their cash to improve an experience customers already value?

Yes, it has not been upgraded.
The flight I was on yesterday had a full PS section, so it seems their strategy is working. I wonder if people are getting PS with GUCs, and hoping for an upgrade. On the flight I was on yesterday, D1 was also full.

Well, for one thing, to avoid being the subject of internet threads like this. Delta would much prefer PS to be favorably compared to AF PE, for example, even if they're not having trouble selling seats. For now anyway it's apparently not worth their investment.

A general ECONOMY upgrade. PS is economy according to Delta, with a nicer seat. Nothing more

That's what I meant - the food service hasn't been improved.

However, all DL said was "an upgrade". They "upgraded". The improved economy dessert was an upgrade. Just not the upgrade most wanted to see

In that context, use of the word "upgrade" is an unfortunate choice of words.
