Now one can fly from Ho Chi Minh City to Lagos on a Delta ticket and never sit on Delta metal. That sucks.

You could do the same from Knoxville to Paris (France, not Tennessee). (probably)

BTW, just went through the new philosophy recurrent. Bravo to the training guys and the course designers. Great two days of actual training and education and not-so-much inane gotcha stuff.

Does the 765 have a dedicated crew rest area, or is it a passenger seat?

Side Question:

On a green slip, what is the difference between "with conflict" and "without conflict"?

With conflict means they will drop a trip on your line and give you the GS. I am not sure anymore how the pay for that works, but I can assure you that it isn't the deal it once was. Without conflict is a GS on your days off.
