Much more than marginally, in my estimation. I'm sure there have been bad actors on some of the business or first class international flights I have taken, but I can't seem to recall any, probably due to my being comfortably holed up in my own little cubby with a champagne.

I agree. And I notice some of the colleagues I have who only fly economy saying business or first is not worth it seem to spend a lot of money on other things. Different personal preferences, clearly. (Also, some of those same people routinely pay a lot more for economy than I would because they procrastinate and buy last minute tickets.)
