And they can stop paying extra for business class, because it stops mattering.

The times I've flown business, the best part has been how the seat can fold down fully so one can sleep property and lying down. None of the other stuff really mattered to me.

Sounds like you're under 6' tall. (I've never flown business-class, though.)

Or a normal/skinny weight. Even my shoulders are too wide for modern economy seats.

I fly a lot of business class, and the comfort and space is what you pay for, not entertainment. But having good wifi helps a lot, even in a cramped seat.

Just flew across the Atlantic on lay-flat seats. They are absolutely a massive improvement over anything I’ve flown in before but I still couldn’t sleep well. Maybe I’m too big (6’ 2” and not skinny) but I couldn’t lay completely flat because I ran out of leg room as the seat reclined.

It was an amazing ride other than that.
