And while I am pretty consistent in my choices of mains, I know many people choose according to how they feel on the day, so feel they shouldn't have to pre-order to get what they fancy in F.
Agreed, but then they have to be prepared to be disappointed if their choice isn't available. The only way to ensure that everyone's choice is satisfied is to load 14 of each meal, which immediately means that 28 out of 42 meals will be wasted. Irrespective of the cost, which could probably be soaked up by the fare cost, to waste all that food is clearly irresponsible.
