Ditto.

I would also happily give up my ability to recline if it meant the person in front of me couldn't either.

Maybe aircraft with three distinct blocks of seats should have 1/3 which just simply lack recline. You want recline? Book the other 2/3 of the aircraft, I'm going to be booking that 1/3.

How many minutes do you think it will take the airline to work out that if the seats don't recline there doesn't have to be so much space between them and you can fit in a couple of extra rows.
