This is extremely entitled behavior and is LESS likely to bring the desired result !
Given that the chance they agree to it if you ask is zero, it's by definition more likely to bring you the desired result. I stand by my recommendation.
I did not say nobody would notice, rather it bypasses the issue of the cultural norm of being unable to agree to any bending of the rules, regardless of circumstance.
Given you think it's "rude", "extremely entitled" and "discourteous", I wonder if you could explain who exactly is negatively impacted by this change. Is anyone gaining an unfair advantage
I'd also urge you to run the hypothetical in your mind - if two passengers in Y were to swap seats, would you feel the same?
Or if two people in a movie theatre voluntarily switch seats?
Do you operate your life and moral code to be an exact mirror of the rules and regulations around you?
Anyway, feel free to present your own opinions on the question at hand, but there's really no need to resort to ad-hominen. cheers
