When I read your post, I wasn't sure if you meant "friendly" like:
1. You're obese, we'll let you on anyway.
or
2. You're obese, so take this second seat free of charge.

It appears that for AC, it's the second. But I'm not sure why you'd need a doctor's note. I mean...can you not tell by looking if someone's that obese?

Still, how should you handle the situation if you're the one whose seat is being encroached upon, when it's very obvious to you, but the armrest still goes down fine?
