There is an extremely serious design issue that continues to plague the travelers of the world. I estimate that this problem has existed for centuries — or at least since the invention of the armrest.
We often find ourselves sitting next to people. People we don’t even know. Be it a bus, a train, a movie theater, or any public place where seats are placed side-by-side. The “situation” I’m about to discuss becomes especially relevant on an airplane, where space is scarce, and sitting is a mandatory position for any number of hours.
It’s about sharing. Something that the world has shown little interest in. It’s also about the armrest, and how it’s precious few inches of solid existence can be a war zone — a battle between two elbows jockeying for position.
