And my partner’s seat (1A) wouldn’t recline, the IFE failed several times, for which BA gave us 150,000 Avios.

All in all, just another example is of how bad BA has become. Light years away from my JL F flights in January.
Cramped in what way?
It is literally the most spacious seat on British Airways.

If you are comparing it to other carriers, it is also worth including the price in your comparison.
The cheapest return F seat will cost you £9,000 on JAL whereas on BA it would be £4,500 for a comparable route with a similar distance.
