Of all the horrible things capitalism does, this is the least concerning. Of course they’re going to categorize the one seat in the plane that doesn’t have a window but is on the window side of the plane as “window”. It’s more confusing to invent an extra class of seat for “window side but you’re all the way in the back behind all the windows”.
I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if they have a standard discount they’ll offer to anyone who complains about this. But if they get dragged into court over it, they’ll fight it in principle.
It’s only dystopian if they charge extra for window seats. They do not, as far as I’m aware. Occasionally aisle seats will be extra though, since those have a tiny bit of extra room.

Sure, this is “boring dystopia” material. But a boring dystopia is still dystopia.
