I seems the new ones could easily be used on the 772 seats.

Going forward, I think I will always try for that section.
FYI, I was in row 6, which I think is probably the best seat when flying solo. You still have visibility into the rest of the cabin, but you have the half-height closet separating you from the other side of the cabin. So you still feel a part of it but don't have anyone looking directly at you.
