My biggest fear, frankly, is being assigned a sofa seat. I don't mind sitting across from someone, I do that on trains all the time. But I am not a fan of not having a table available.
The sofa is terrible. Fortunately, i had the whole sofa to myself, so I was able to take my shoes off and lie down. But when not doing that, there is literally not enough room in the aisle for the flight attendant to get by without contortions.
There is no table. (well, on the GIV setup I was on yesterday, anyway). You have to hold your food on your lap. There were drink holders to the side of the sofa, at least.
Likewise, if you want to use your laptop, it will go on your lap. And there were no outlets within reasonable reach, either.
