Do 4 degrees make a difference?
Has anyone tried the "new-NEV" l'Espace Affaire seats (on renovated 772s)? They are supposed to be inclined by 4 degrees less (9 instead of 13 degrees) than the "NEV-classic". Does that make a difference in (sliding) comfort?

I have tested it this summer on a CDG-JFK route. I wasn't aware at that time of the change and personnally I noticed nothing at all.
I add heard about this NEV2 on the 772 without knowing the differences and was actually quite disapointed not to notice any difference when I got in the plane

I'm note sure if this is linked, but I found on my CDG-BKK flight last August that after the lie flat position there was another more cradle seat like position, which I found very confortable and avoided that slipping down effect.
But you have to keep the button pressed down to get there, it is easy to miss.
