I think it depends on the plane, sometimes those seats don't recline. In some narrow-body jets, this seat is normally where the queue for the toilet forms. People end up constantly standing right next to you, or the odors from the washroom can certainly be smelt. I've even been on some overnight flights where the flight attendants are constantly accessing the overhead areas, and making noise making it impossible to sleep.

The point wasn't about that specific seat, just that certain seats in the same fare class are more desirable than others.
