Don't get me wrong, I'm a Boeing fan. No matter how good the 350 looks, you're still basically just a meat-servo for the computer. It's just that with every other Airbus product, you have to emphasize the comfort of the seat, and the tablet for your lap-top, to draw attention away from the underwhelming aesthetics. You do this with a straight face, the way you would bravely talk about the "great personality" of a girlfriend that you (strangely) refuse to introduce to your friends and family. The best example is the Lufthansa/Air France 380 drivers, who probably keep a model of the 747 on their shelf. When the kids ask about the new plane, they bravely say it's Supah/Supperre.

At least, with the A350, you'd be able to show them a picture. They'd never have to know about normal (martial) law.
