They are two separate things. You are going to choose one or the other at the gate podium.

The policy as it is currently is very close to what I would consider “industry standard”. You have to make a choice on what you want to do. Most ops agents are going to let you preboard if you are in uniform. I plan on just nonrevving unless they are in a weight situation.

I have a feeling once this settles down, it will be very close to exactly what everyone else does, which is assign an extra legroom cabin seat to crew unless they aren’t available (people are cheap so they usually are).
