The issue is the cabin and age, not just the seats and it's certainly not about the food or service. Remember this is a 2010 cabin. Can you imagine how many bums have been on those seats over those years. Casually saying you'd take it with a 'pinch of salt' is a little rich. They are old. It's not a premium experience for the money paid based on age alone. The IFE is dreadful (due to the age).

If you get the relatively new 2020 F seat on the 777-300, this is like a bigger version of the modern Club Suite, but most cabins do not have that seat and never got updated when Club Suite was installed and this confuses me. Why did BA spend time and money updating the old Club World to Club Suite on these planes, but left the old F?
