Curiously, even the seating chart on the web page shows less space between the rows.
Interesting that they also show leess space between the rows for those in row 29 as well. Of course this may just be a function that in both cabins the seats between the aisle and the window have standard legroom and for the purposes of this diagram they can't diferentiate.
For the most part I'm going to trust
https://www.aerolopa.com/aa-772-type-1 which correlates with 20DEGH has having extra legroom, but I have not personally checked on board. I would not trust AA's seat map in accurately showing the placements of seats in the cabin at all, as it's likely just done by taking the leftmost seat and basing the distance of the whole row on that, and does not accurately show seats that are staggered (such as in the forward J cabin).
