A bigger Platinum One shadow?

On a recent domestic 737 flight that was lightly loaded I was sitting in 4A, there was no one in B or C. Also 5A and B were free, but there was one guy sitting in 5C. On the other side of the aisle 4D, 4F, 5D and 5F were all occupied. I just thought I was lucky to have no one seated near me.

I have had other flights where someone was seated in the aisle seat on the same side as me, but those flights were much fuller.

But now looking at the seat map for an up coming flight. It seems that a similar pattern was blocked on the seat map on expert flyer. As well as 4B being blocked that 5A and B were also blocked. I was wondering if it could be that Platinum One can have a bigger shadow than when the flight is lightly loaded.

I changed my seat selection to 4F to see if the seat blocks in row 5 followed me. Interestingly enough they didn't follow me, but they did disappear from 5A and 5B. Not sure what to make of that. I might have to wait for the actual flight to see what happens for sure. Or just wait and see if the seat blocks appear behind me.
