Stick to real,issues, like tiny lavs or the tight pitch, which would be greatly helped by splitting the difference and going to 166 pax (presumably AA is currently profitable flying 20 year old 738s with 160 pax, so 6 additional seats + much lower fuel costs mean AA will still "never lose money again" )
Not to mention the Domestic F seats on the 737MAX do not contain in-seat AVOD, like the premium economy seats do.
