From a hard product perspective, the new UA F may be a generation behind the asian and middle eastern airlines, but I don't find it too terribly different (or at least adequate) compared to european long-haul F.

So is it cheaper to offer competitive food and wine as well as pajamas vs. ripping out the new F seats to add more BF product? Seems like PJs and dom would be cheaper...
