SAS Plus Europe - Is it Business or Premium Economy?

Given that this discussion keeps popping up, I thought we might as well have a dedicated thread to reference when this question arises again.
And perhaps even vote in a poll on it as there seem to be different opinions!

Much like in case if many question, the actual answer depends.

In terms of marketing and the on-board product, however, SAS Plus is Premium Economy.

SAS Plus is kinda like Schrödinger's Business/Premium Economy Class: It is either and both at the same time.
Which it is heavily depends on connected to what aspect of travel you are asking.

Discuss!
