They know the 777 bid is coming up and know it should truly "go senior"...thus, they want to pre-fatten the WB seats and then draw the initial 777 crowd from the top of the WBs.

Also, remember while a lot of folks may be holding "awards" to return to their window seats on 5 June --- mgt still controls the timing they actually attend training. Mgt can stretch it out and keep them in the cheaper NB seats until they need actually need them.
At RGS a couple of weeks ago, Rosado indicated that junior guys would probably get excessed back to the Boeing. It seems they want senior guys in the WB seats and will push the junior guys back down to save money and appease the bean counters.
