However wide you make the seats, there will be someone who will overflow
the width of the seat, for any reasonable seat width. If you're going to
make 737s with 2-3 seat configurations instead of 3-3, you're going to have
to raise ticket prices by 20% to make up for the lost revenue. Why should
those of us who fit in a standard coach seat have to pay 20% more to
accommodate those who don't? (And how else would you increase seat widths?)

Argue all you want about how wide a seat should be, but there will still be
someone who won't fit. Then, what?

I'm sure someone's going to raise a fuss. Alas, I don't have enough faith
in the American legal system to be confident that Southwest will prevail.
But I applaud them for trying.
