My jeans have a 44 waist and I needed an extention belt on the 787 dreamliner of KLM, never ever needed them on any other plane.
Got one without any issues.
The airbag is bulky, heavy and uncomfortable bye the way.

Let's be real here. Seat belts protect you from the effects of turbulence, taxiing accidents etc. If your plane crashes, no amount of in-belt airbags is going to make a difference in terms of survivability.

Can you provide any evidence to support this claim? All the scientific research is - as far as I know - 100% contrary to your statement.

I don’t see any major problems with this... ultimately the test will be once the passenger is on board... if they don’t fit they don’t fit and will have to be moved (or reaccommodated on another flight).
The same thing no doubt happens with pax who book exit rows and have boarding passes issued by other airlines... the ultimate test is once they are on board. If the crew deems them ineligible they are moved.
