I disagree that $115 is peanuts for E+ upsell, even for long hauls. I'm average height, and don't get much out of E+. I can see why someone 6 feet tall would appreciate it, but IMO there is really no advantage to E+ for those shorter than about 5 ft 9 or so.

Now, if UA also had *wider* seats for an extra $115, I'd consider it.
