Or maybe the "morbidly obese" were not using extensions? Maybe just obese or disgustingly obese, instead of morbidly obese.

Reminds me of another thing-I've been flying the same route but different weekdays for the last few months, regularly upgraded. There is an obese woman (not morbidly so) who sits in business class-
she doesn't wear her seatbelt--seen her a few times, doesn't buckle up, and the Flight attendants don't say anything. I never remember any medical exemption in the FARs for the seat belt requirement...
