I'm sure I'd love it if I got to fly an airshow routine in it. However, for the benign and gentle flying of 121 flying, it doesn't matter to me.
It it were the "best narrow body Boeing every built", then why is it out of production?
The cockpit layout is abysmal. And the "extra space" behind me is of minimal use when I'm in the right seat.
There are about another dozen or so really weak things about the aircraft that I don't care for... but it will just lead to more bickering amongst the masses.
Then there's the lack of intercom...
