This seems like a dumb rule that's just going to increase airfares for everyone else as companies try to comply with this. Airlines are already required by law to give a refund within 24 hours. If you booked a ticket that doesn't have a signed seating that's the fair class you chose and you get what you get. If you book a ticket with a signed seating and you don't see the seats that you want you have 24 hours to cancel. Otherwise just deal with it.
