You think it would be more ideal to wear out engines sooner and burn more fossil fuels?

If efficiency is the curse capitalism brings us, I’m feeling a little better about it.

If efficiency is the goal, packing people into a standing-only flight would also save fuel and reduce wear, I suppose you don't see any problem with that either?

Are you saying that unless I’m willing to travel in uncomfortable conditions, you see no reason to reduce environmental impact of flights?

You’re trolling, right? That seems like a really implausible world view.
