Plenty of premium products are made from recycled materials. As such, a "premium" experience can start with a product labeled as "recycled."

I did read your first post carefully (see above). You did not said anything about off-brand which seems to be your bigger gripe because after reading your second post my conclusion is that you are conflating products made from recycled material versus a premium product and an off-brand product. What if it was Westin bedding made from recycled material. Would you gripe too?
That said if people think having bedding made by Westin covering oneself is a premium experience, remember that one is directly in a seat/bed that hundreds of other people have been in beforehand and is cleaned a couple of times a year. At least when I have taken a night train one may get a plain old blanket at least the sheet covers both under and over oneself.
