Not only is offering Sleeper Service style-service alongside full four course service incredibly costly but it still disturbs those sleeping in the cabin. If you look at the majority of the passengers on BA in J, and many on AA in J (even though they don't serve pre-flight dining outside the FL), they zonk out instantly upon take off - many not even waiting for a night cap or the Sleeper Service food service.
<redacted> I guess you didn't read in that same sentence that I said folks could also elect to fly on BA TATL (which provides the sort of meals you're advocating). <redacted>
