Just upgraded my upcoming YYZ-PEK flight to PE for $450 because I need to rest well on that flight. Will see how my second PE experience will go.
Assume you meal first meal?

With the sleeping part, I think with AC PE, the angle of recline is "just enough" to make it feel like you're not upright sitting in the Emergency Department waiting room at 03:45 in the morning.
I believe PY IFE is also slightly larger than Y.

I agree with nomad, it really wouldn’t take that much to improve it by bringing back the curtain, and the for the love of providing a decent second meal. Not withstanding the Monty lovers

Dedicated service and the like I don’t see happening. But the above two surely wouldn’t break the bank for something that is very often hundreds more than Flex and two or three times the price of Standard now.
