I will be surprised if there isn't 1,65 inch available in each aisle, but time will tell.

Edit: according to seatguru,
Lufthansa has 17" seats in a 3-3-3 config in eco and 18" in a 2-3-2 config in PE.
Singapore airlines has 18" seats in a 3-3-3 config in eco and 19" in 2-4-2 config in PE.
Delta has 18" seats in a 3-3-3 config in eco and 18,5" in a 2-4-2 config in PE.
I would guess SK will go with 18" as a minimum given the competition and limitations built into the A350. 17" is rare even for regular economy for other carriers with the A350, outside of the LCCs.
