Because sometimes the flight depart at the wrong time. For example, 830am departure to the US. All 3 or 4 pilots are well rested so it is impossible to sleep at that time. Some may wish to eat their meal on those empty seat or even to watch a movie before going to the bunk.

In my 5 years at EK I have seen it happen once. Its 99% up to the purser and they will not want to risk any repercussion... because they are not supposed to ever upgrade people(unless Dubai sends them a message telling them to).

What I meant was they had 3 days off before the long haul flight and with the flight depart at 8am local, they would have had some good sleep therefore can't really go to the bunk again a few hours after they have woke up.
