Just an interesting conundrum I have (very) recently faced, because I guess I've been lucky in scoring lots of aisle and MCE seats in my short time as an American devotee.

If you had to take a flight where your only choice was between an MCE exit row MIDDLE SEAT with substantial leg room (no cost bc of status), vs an aisle seat way back near the galley, what would you choose?

I will withhold what my choice was, curious what you all think.
