Why is "strategy" in quotes? Overflying NRT when the markets dictate that doing so will increase revenue is good business. I have always found the fNWA guys' lovefest with the 787 somewhat amusing because that is EXACTLY what that airplane will do.. and sooner than if we were to buy a similar number of 777s. But to the other part of your question, why not 777s? Longer range, more capacity, etc etc etc... and it's a Boeing
