I never said that only one thing matters.

But continuing to insist that the CO planes do not offer some seats that include the exact same benefits of E+, albeit branded differently (hardly shocking considering that UA trademarked the term), is living in a mythical world of make-believe. No, CO does not offer as many as UA does, but there are more than zero. Claiming that there are none is, at best, misleading.

If you favor flying on a widebody over having AVOD or power that's your personal preference. Suggesting that everyone else should have the same priorities as you is idiotic. Being willing to note that there are benefits and drawbacks to the various options is what allows the people asking for help to make an informed decision about what is best for them.
