I say it because it is my opinion, you don’t have to like it, just like I despise RyanAir and MOL. That’s my choice.
You called him a clown though. Perhaps a better choice of words next time.
I have to disagree about the “extra fuel burn” I’m afraid, the amount of “fat people” on board who wouldn’t be negated by “slimmer” people is negligible, you’d have to have a plane load of them for it to make any significant difference. It is downright discriminatory.
The same way a few extra kilos of baggage get penalised? Perhaps we should all take as much luggage as possible as no doubt there will be someone with no luggage.
Airline seats are not sold down the right hand side first and then the left due to weight/balance issues. It is better for the aircraft’s perfromance that things are balanced as any extra weight or lack of balance about the c.o.g. has a negative effect.
I have nothing against larger people and I don’t think this idea should be brought into reality, however I was just pointing out that there is some rational behind it.
