I'm not sure what would go in place of removed first class, as the seats 379s have are not really readily available. They're used in 172s and 377/1-5, and 313/2 had them but have since been scrapped. Perhaps an unattractive mix of Fainsa and the current seats, or simply declassification of the current large first class seats in 2+1, which would certainly be a contrast in standard class products with the 387s and 700s on the route.There is no guarantee that if GTR get the 379s the seating will stay the same, especially as the months in storage won’t be doing it any good. There would need to be some level of reconfiguration as in their current form the 379s have too much first - that’s if GTR doesn’t go the same way as other TOCs and first disappears altogether.
And this all depends on whether GTR get the 379s at all.
