I've begun to wonder about this as well. Is it that your leg below about the knee is actually between the seats in front, doesn't that mean the window passenger has to climb over the thighs or even hips of the aisle passenger? In which case, isn't that going to be awkward or even embarrasing if the aisle passenger is a largish woman sleeping on her side? In which case is this really better than the BA 50% backwards solution where you only ever have to climb across someones feet? As anyone actually tried the CO seat style in anger?
