-700s will be getting new interiors. I believe what is driving the A319/A320 retirements is engine related… Parts for the IAE engines aren’t being produced as quickly as PW is tied up trying to push out parts for the GTF engines that are sidelined.

Could be, although Rolls-Royce still makes many of the spare parts despite selling ownership to PW. It's also difficult to impossible to get the CRT displays. They can be replaced with LCD but there's a cost/benefit calculation there that maybe doesn't wash with 150+ more fuel efficient narrowbodies on order?
