I’ve noticed really confusing upgrade prompts pop up when buying tickets from major airlines, including an upgrade that made the price higher than First Class on the same flight. It included a seat upgrade if available, meaning you could end up very little for the money you spent. If you were to simply click the Main Extra seat you wanted in the seating chart, you’d pay way less. The upgrade did have some refund terms that were not included in a normal ticket, but it deliberately appeared in a way to obfuscate the option to simply upgrade a seat (or to first class.)
