Most of the space required for the extra seat is taken from the aisles or other peoples' seats. You're share will reduce by maybe 1 inch which unless you're a really snug fit you won't even notice.
or the person next you is a POS. Then the loss of that extra inch matters. And if you are in the aisle seat, you get hit by the service carts every time they come through.
I book away from every 787 and 777 with 10 wide Y. The 767, A330, A350 and few remaining 9 wide 777s are what I select now.
