This is much better than what a lot of airlines offer, including American who have no leg rests in non-bulkhead seats.
You can see that the UA seat behind has a leg rest, which is actually full width unlike the SQ seat. Both are clearly better than the AA seat which you can see has no leg rest at all.
The key difference, for me is the support under the leg /knee vs for the feet. I personally prefer the UA bulkhead and SQ support. I have flown PE on OALs and tried different configurations.
I personally had been hoping for the lounge chair style seats used in business class in the 1980s and 1990s. Now that would have been a game changer.
As others have noted PE will be better than E+
