I find the 789 experience to be much preferable to the 77W, and doubly so if you're traveling as a group. And adding a stop at EWR adds over 800 miles of travel and probably about four hours to the trip.

That said, there's a good chance UA would make that change if you called and cited the new seats as a reason for booking that flight in the first place. You might need to try a couple of times.
