Interesting , however i would say it is just a error. I have found on the Emirates website and app that certain seats especially in J/F are missing and they usually fix themselves once the T-2 months mark hits ( usually when EK select what aircraft is flying what route).
Would not get too excited yet

. . . . . FlyerTalk member m3red notes that as of December 1, 2017, Emirates shows a new seatmap in first class for their 777 flights between Dubai and Seattle.

Im trying to picture what this layout is going to look like but the 2 blocked seats are just confusing me, perhaps those will be double occupancy, similar to the residence?

It may be that the window suites are horizontal while the center ones are staggered lengthwise or something, roughly like this, though not sure how it would work in the width of the aircraft:
Another option more like EY, though then there would be rows 1-3 not 1-2 (this would be somewhat staggered presumably, and single-aisle):

The only way I could see it working for 1-1-1 would be like the old Lufthansa 744 F in the bubble - a permanent bed next to a limited incline seat. Can't really see how there'd be space for anything else. I'd be totally onboard for that though

I think the seats would more likely look like you mentioned. That is, there will be seats A1, E1, K1 on row 1; and A2, F2, K2 on row 2.
