Seat selection on british airways 787 flight
score:2
I believe that everything you see in that image is in fact all of premium economy.
("Economy" is large and starts behind Premium Economy; Economy is not at all shown on your screen. Your screen shows only, and all of, Premium Economy.)
What you are seeing with the prices, $62 etc is the latest airline scam - after buying your ticket you can pay even more for a supposedly "better" seat - but that's strictly meaning within your section.
Furthermore notice in fact they ALL have prices: this is the latest variation of that scam: you have to pay for any known reserved seat selection.
My personal advice about the whole "pay for seats" idea is to forget it and just take the seat you get (for "free") on the day. (A fascinating point: when you take part in the "pay for a seat" scam, they are actually not even really guaranteed.)
{You ask about row 16, it's just the family row with baby-holders. BA's policy seems to change from time to time, and I'm sure it depends on the route / equipment. I once booked and got one of those even though I was traveling alone without my children. It looks like on this particular flight/interface you are not allowed/able to book them - it's unlikely you would want to anyway.}
Note too: the last I flew with them (it changes all the time), BA has a confusing system where you can pay to select a specific seat (just as you show) but I think when it comes to 24? 12? hours before hand, you can then pick one ("of those remaining") for free. And indeed when you simply arrive and book in you can just pick one of the remaining.
{On top of all that, a couple of times I've just complained bitterly/politely at check in that I have a "sore leg" (I mean, I did have a sore leg) so I "needed to" sit on the aisle - and they just shuffled things around so I did.}
But wait - do you know about this site and it's competitor sites:
it will give you total information on the topic you are asking about. On truly long flights (and that's you!) it's worth having a look sometimes.

Row 16 is blocked off from seat selection because British Airways reserves those seats in case of families needing baby baskets - if they remain unselected by an airline agent for that purpose, they are released for selection 48-72 hours prior to the flight.
BA do this for Business bulkhead seats as well, its not just Economy or Premium Economy, and selecting that seat costs nothing in addition to any of the other seat prices, you just have to wait for them to be released.
