Average is an interesting word
"Average" male shoulder width
https://www.firstinarchitecture.co.u...le-dimensions/ = 465mm = 18,3 inches
(Female 395mm = 15.6 inches)
CX 3-4-3 seat = 17.2 + 1.5 (two halves of armest) = 18.7
So the new seat leaves no wiggle room for two adjacent males (or an oversized (overbearing) C9, as in my first 3-4-3 experience).

Obviously airlines are not required to consider averages.
