What’s interesting is that a week ago, you basically wrote something that echoes the sentiment I am ATTEMPTING to convey.
There is no doubt that B aircraft are shrinking while the population is growing. B and even A NB seats are really only designed to accommodate 50% or less of the general population. It sucks for wide people but I, or anyone else, shouldn't have to suffer. Your ticket (not you directly but in general) gets you space in YOUR seat and not in MINE.
FWIW: An E175 is far more comfortable than a B737 in my opinion (UA colors for both).
