What is the purpose of the extra seat?
If its lateral room I don't see how row 1 easyjet will help since its narrower then a normal seat. If its for legroom, I don't see how an extra seat helps? I suppose emergency exit is a fairly good compromise between the two.
If luggage swings things, don't forget to factor in that upfront seats with easyjet let you have an additional piece of hand luggage and speedy boarding.
