Seat configuration is up to the airline to decide to some degree. Some newer 737s have the ability for airlines to pack them dense if they decide to. A lot of airlines use 737s for short haul flights that do not have meal service, so not being able to fit a meal is not a concern for these customers. What they care about more is being able to split the costs between more passengers and offer cheaper tickets.
