I just noticed on the (flimsy) artists rendering on Airbus' release that the 321NEO is in the new space-flex layout. Doors 2L/R are removed; 2 overwing exits are used and a smaller door 3L/R inserted - so technically you can have a layout that goes from 1L/R uninterrupted to 4L/R.
Can't you just see marketing do that? I know the planned layout is 197 but you'd have to assume there's a lav or 2 at 3L/R and maybe for our FA friends somewhere to put away the trash (see the 32K) in the space-flex galleys.

...or the gate agent extends the jet bridge too far trying to reach that elusive A321 L2 door, hyper-extending the air-conditioning tubes, and then, realizing her mistake as I try to wave her off, retracts back amidst a cloud of shattering fiberglass and crumpling aluminum, causing a 45 minute arrival gate re-shuffle. oops!

I'm on the bus, and the 321 is a great plane. But having a 2L door that you still can't use is frustrating indeed, especially when 192 pax take forever to deplane.
Airbus should have spent a little more time in the design phase and made the 2L door the default boarding door like the 757. That is a huge difference in the boarding and unloading experience, not to mention catering, cabin service etc
