My understanding as well, and as stated previously you can check-in online 2 days before and get a boarding pass, before any of the "upgrades" take place.
To be honest this appears to be a of concern to those who would book at Cat C last minute to improve their chances if the flight looks tight. Far better in my view if its last minute and loads are tight to get a Cat A, then hope the jump-seat is open. Always have a plan B as well.
Yes we need clarification, yes there will be ASMs that will attempt to take the p1ss, but thats where being a bit clever and knowing how to work the rules in your favour is important.
