Thing is, we're allowed to make full use of the things we purchase.
Get a $500 rolling carry on, you're allowed to use every square inch of interior space.
Get a pair of shoes, adjust the laces to your liking.
Get a Big Mac, you're allowed to eat every last sesame seed.
Get a coach plane fare, you're allowed to utilize the allowable space.
In my life I've never heard of any ethical or moral issue in keeping an already-cramped seat that you pay top dollar for in a compromised position. In fact, I make certain flights on certain airlines just to get a fraction more legroom or seat recline, I'm not giving that up, I paid for it, it's owed to me.
If someone doesn't fit in the seat they paid for, well, get another seat. It's not the responsibility of others to make up for their short sightedness. Lots of seats, lots of classes, pick one that fits your body properly, problem solved.
