The agent made it clear - "The agent didn't tell me I couldn't have an exit row - they said they can't release it for disability reasons and keep an exit row on another leg". You claim you are disabled to get the better seat. Then you claim you are not disabled to get the exit row.
You are either unbelievably stupid or are simply not actually reading these posts. I am disabled. I did not claim that I am 'not disabled'. I posted the exit row requirements on the previous page. The exit row does not explicitly exempt people with disabilities. If you are still willing and able despite your disability, what's the issue? The only time I've been denied an exit row is when I was using a cane or crutches after surgery.

I absolutely cannot believe that with the amount of assumptions you have made in this thread.

Oh and another thing - since I actually never clarified it and a number people have made the assumption - I did not at any point say I was disabled/handicapped to DL. I told them I experience discomfort and pain when I requested the blocked seats. DL used a disability override at their discretion.
