No need to be snarky, Jimmie76 was quite pleasant in response to your sourness.

You hadn’t mentioned 8 versus 4 in your previous rant but although BA is indeed ‘2-4-2’ and not yet ‘1-2-1’, count the heads in a row across the aircraft and both configurations have...4. BA could have numbered the seats differently back in 1999 but that probably would have confused people and you’d be grumpy about that too...

Fact is, some prefer the current config, others prefer reverse herringbone. Some like to pay for seats, others don’t but do anyway, and yet still others won’t since it’s completely optional.
