Every time I get on these planes, I hear passing comments from seatmates on how tight and cramped this plane feels. These aren't people who have much "awareness" of the difference between 3-3-3 and 3-4-3, but they are nevertheless aware of how uncomfortable the plane makes them feel.
Your body proportions are *vastly* more slender than the average in the US.
