Any guesses for what chaos awaits us on this train?
Edit to add: This is not the ticket, it was printed alongside the actual ticket, after asking for seating preferences.

You've reserved A seat.
Except you haven't, that's the point.
If you don't get to the train early, you have to stand. That's how British trains work. People who get to the train will see many seats unreserved saying "Seat Available" on the overhead sign, regardless of whether they've reserved a seat.
So someone who hasn't clicked "reserve a seat" on the booking process might sit on that, while you stand in the hallway.
The ticket literally means "sorry, you don't have a seat assigned".
But you are permitted to sit. Just the seat you find is not defined.
Everyone is permitted to sit, except if the seat is reserved for someone else who has a normal seat reservation ticket which specifies the coach and seat number.
Exactly
Yes, but which one?
Who cares? Some airlines do this too. You just get a boarding group, and pick your own seat
Do they still give you a boarding pass, and a seperate piece of paper stating that you have a reservation, but does not in itself act as a reciept nor boarding pass?
Also, that example is bad to begin with, because airlines will oversell their planes ALL THE TIME. Spirit and Fronteer literally try to oversell every single plane on purpose. The idea being that they can try to convince you to get reimbursed with Fronteer bucks. A fictional currency that is only good within their company and has no outside real world value. Then they hope that you take it, and then later that currency expires. Meaning in the end you paid for an airline ticket that you never used and have no recoarse to get refunded.
