Too bad they didn't do what BR and SQ does by setting each table individually. I guess it's too much work for those over entitled CX FA.
I think you overestimate how much cathay management is willing to listen to their crew. I'd rather guess it's because they don't want to add extra crew to work on the flight but they know it will literally take hours to complete the meal service under such manpower if they need to also set up the tables. Imagine how long would it take before you can finish eating and sleep/work if service with trays needs around 3 hours already.
