Might be a compromise for very, very tall people. But for someone like me who sleeps like a driftwood corpse in Y+, legrests help to feel better after the resurrection.
Bigger problem to me was the footwell of regular Y seats.
So LH! Now they crippled Y to make Y+ look even better. Marketing folks ....
I never got continuous service above about 60VA when I had a meter on me. Does the Magsafe have such a crappy power factor, or does it really put out more than 60W in real power?
AFAIK Apple offers no 60W magsafe 2. So mine is a well built Chinese pseudo clone which works in some C seats (JL, UA, SQ, OS) and randomly no on others (LH, AY, LX, BA). And yes it has an impressive apparent power. But that should not trigger the circuit breaker, they should be true RMS.

My original magsafe 2 85W has a power up spike when not powered up with 110V ... that is an even worse feature. It has popped fuses in hotels .
I can only wonder what took so long. Amenity kit, as nearly as I can tell, is a standard C kit in a smaller bag with no moisturizers.
My money is on in-house competition. And compared to the limp-o-something offers chez BA, this is definitely progress.
