Some or most of these things apply to the other top range lines such as Seabourn, Silversea, Sea Dream and, to a lesser extent, Crystal. As to the passengers' age on Regent being "dead", I resemble that!
Definitely to the lesser extent with Crystal. Crowds, lines, small cabins and unpleasant attitude. Not even in the same category as your much smaller ships you cited. Why did you even include them, except for the dead passenger quotient. But there were also plenty of kids behaving badly on Crystal. (See attitude above)
