Zero back strain whatsoever. And I don't know about you but I put my flight case in before I sit down, so no, it's not common courtesy to leave the seat all the way back. You may have your way, I have my way. I don't complain that people are to stupid to leave the seat all the way forward, I just move it where I need it and get on with it!
When you leave the seat forward it blocks the hole for the flight case...AND you can't sit down! Which isn't so bad except when the seat is left reclined you have to crawl all over the friggin cockpit to reach the recline lever. Grrr...
