But I'd still rather lose a lav if it means having the lie-flats .
(And I'm still amazed at how few people in J or F on other airlines get changed into some form of sleeping kit when PJs not supplied. Admittedly its a bit more in the carry-on, but I take my own sleeping gear even on QF - QR PJ trousers and a baggy T shirt )

Conversely I find the fascination with changing into pyjamas on aeroplanes quite strange

I like my sleep so worst case, you will find me in my jammies temporarily in the airport but I will dive into the first toilets to adjust this fashion faux pas

Whatever they call them, I still cannot see the fascination with them and are amongst the things that I tend to not accept when the attendants come round trying to clutter my space ( together generally the wash bags etc )

For me, to whom checking luggage is Anathema, they are very useful in extending the pre-wash life of the few pieces of attire I travel with.

I never understood the PJs until I tried them. I usually travel in jeans and a polo shirt. The PJs are significantly more comfortable and means my clothes are fresher when I disembark.
I generally leave them on board.

* originally thought it was weird
* but they are more comfy than jeans
* and most importantly (for me) it keeps your clothes fresher
I also leave them on board

I know I look a complete dag when I'm changed, but I'm 'of an age' where I don't care two hoots and I'm much more comfortable and relaxed. Street clothes get hung up in the cupboard, out of the way.
But I do admire the odd chap you see who keep their ties on the entire way on a long haul! (Maybe that's you, Dave Noble ? )

I love my QF PJs. The F pants are great for the flight and when they have shrunk after the first wash (cold water, dry on a clothes line - not drier), I can recycle them into fantastic cleaning rags for my bike. That saves ripping up a T shirt.
Oh, and BTW, the I never wear the PJ top and prefer a well worn T shirt instead..
