Correct, it's like sitting and sleeping on a metal bench with a piece of cloth over it. The flimsy mattress cover doesn't do much either. I also have never mind the old UA/CO seats in terms of sleeping, they were well cushioned for a good rest. Besides the seat, I think the sleep products on UA are also much better than AC, including the distribution of pajamas and slippers.
