Maybe I am also just an alcoholic but the free unlimited drinks makes a 6hr JFK-SFO flight much more tolerable.

Maybe I am also crazy or weird but I think a middle seat MCS > aisle MC. The room in front of you (especially row 3) is almost essential I want to try to get some real laptop work in. The window and middle seats can also usually squeeze by with just closing the tray table rather than having the entire row stand up when someone needs the bathroom.
This :-:
Anyone who says "MCS is basically an exit row seat" clearly hasn't sat in Row 3, which has a ton of space.

And the free alc in MCS makes it worth it alone -- thats a huge benefit for a free upgrade. Free food is nice, but whatever who cares. Alcohol is the true item of value on a plane.
