He should pay tripple for a certain "fat seat" that gets required by law by the gov, which either needs to be installable modularly, to replace ordinary seats, or be available for any flight in a fitting number, for maximum barrier free flying.
With this "fat seat" taking up approximately the space of four ordinary seat spaces, no one would be discriminated and everyone enjoy maximum leg freedom and no cuts to security, or stroke risk from bad circulation.
That sounds like a bit of a better idea. Special seating.

Their bodies will literally take up a good 10-20% of your seat, if not more. I'm thinking, "What the Hell, I paid for my seat so I expect to have full use, not some sucka who can't even control his own eating who pays for one seat and yet gets his seat in addition to a good percentage of my seat."

Not to mention it's a hella safety hazard.

Airlines are starting to require fat passengers to purchase two seats if they're too big. If they didn't, then they get asked off the plane. Good going airlines, IMO.
I haven't ever been on an airplane, actually. Can't say I know that discomfort.
