Not arguing that a 'heads-up, we're changing the second row of seats' may have been in order, but knowing why *it* changed doesn't actually change anything, does it?
Sure it does. If the change is aesthetic and folding seats can simply be designed in later, people wanting an X may decide to wait. If the change is due to structural issues and the X will never had folding seats, people on the waiting list may decide to cancel and purchase something else.
