As someone who's 6'2 and who only got to fly GF a couple of times, I'm extremely happy about the Polaris seats. If you were habitually flying first in the past then your loss is understandable.
IPTE First was definitely a superior seat to Polaris, but it also occupied a much bigger footprint and as you say is not coming back.
I haven't flown 787 Polaris, but having done it on the 777 and 767 I can't really imagine it's
that much worse to justify the complaining.
