That's a pretty huge caveat since a significant majority of seats are connected.
Compared to the rear-facing Zodiac seat, the BE seat had less storage and I liked the extra power plugs in the Zodiac seat.
As others have noted, I'm confused about your assessment of storage. Personally, one USB and one universal power port has always been enough for me but I can see how it might be helpful for people to have an additional one. I think they're both reasonably good business class seats, but B/E has much better storage and none of them shake so on balance I think they're pretty clearly superior.
