Unsafe seats on a Boeing 777?

On a flight with Singapore airline from Zurich to Singapore with a Boeing 777 I had an aisle seat. Shortly before take off, a flight attendant approached me and told me that this seat is unsafe and I had to move seats for take off. I was given a seat that is normally used by the crew members. After take off I could go back to my first seat.

However, I felt a little bit uncomfortable after that for the rest of the flight. Who wants to sit on an unsafe seat?

So, what are the reasons that such a seat could be considered unsafe only during takeoff? What should I have done?

Which seat is best in flight Boeing 777?

On the 777 I'd just choose an asile seat somewhere near the front. You don't specify times so if you are on the A380 then there are four good economy seats one row back from the emergency exits without a seat in front. These are prebookable too. Be aware it may be cold sitting next to a door.
