The Polaris seat is excellent and even manages that in a fairly dense format, helping support UA flying vastly bigger J cabins than its competition, which is great for pax.
I'm anxiously awaiting the end of the industry pendulum swing toward shipping J pax in coffins.
Yes, doors seem primarily appealing to people who haven’t flown with them.
