The survey reads (my translation):
Assume you need to buy one HK-London Economy adult ticket for peak season/holiday season ?
- One return Economy ticket for HK$10,401 (US$1,333)
- One return "couch" ticket for 10,401 + 18,000 = HK$28,401 (1,333 + 2,308 = US$3,641)?
- One return Premium Economy ticket for HK$20,129 (US$2,581)
Which of the above will you buy?
---
If I'm a couple in PE (and for some reason not burning miles) I might go for the couch, simply because PE's overpriced.

But looking at the child, she doesn't really look comfortable and if the seat in front reclined you'd lose a lot of space.

Interesting. Wouldn't be happy though if I was an unrealated passenger in the window seat of that example pic! It would work ok if the planepal was in the window seat.
