If your boarding pass doesn't reflect your current seat assignment, I believe the scanner at the gate should reject it (I know it works that way w/ KL & DL, guess I'm not 100% sure about NW :confused: ), so those BP's weren't for you.

You should know for sure in a couple days when the miles post and you receive (or not) the 1K back-of-the-bus-penalty-bonus.

Then I'd write a letter. Esp. if the flight was 45 mins. late, he had plenty of time to clear the waitlists & fill up FC.

If there is a "newer" boarding pass available, the system should flash red and the screen will show you're using a no-longer valid boarding pass. I've seen that happen afew times, and had it happen afew times. They scan, beep, "oh, here ya go" and give me my new pass and scan it.
