Local passenger density is going to play a role here venting air from low density first class areas isn’t going to do much. Similarly as you mention air flow is important as being in the middle of a large row could have vastly worse airflow than other areas.
So, I could easily see the aircraft venting mostly 700ppm air while some areas hit 3000 ppm internally.
