The idea is to ask the flight attendant to guilt some single passenger into moving "so the family can sit together."
This was actually pulled on me, successfully, about 30 years ago when I flew for work. The alternative seat turned out to be one of the flight attendants' jump seats! No good deed goes unpunished, as the saying goes.

Or you can look at it as a $20-$50 discount for not sitting together and not using the overhead bin.
I think you just ran into the new “basic economy” experience.
