Informative thread and helpful for showing that it's not an issue for me - as I said I've been flying herringbone internationally for years. If the seats, footwell, storage cubbies, etc are the same, I'm good, so I won't be one of those flyers competing for specific rows. And in fact, I'm that guy who'd swap a straight for an angled (or vice versa) with someone who has such a preference - all other things being equal, of course.
