I have to figure that those times are pretty contrived. Maybe you can evacuate in 90 seconds, if all of the "passengers" are skinny and athletic, and know what's going to happen, and don't have any extra stuff to try and grab, and there's no fire or smoke, etc. All that makes it a little hard to say what the real effect is. It would probably be a bit slower, but I bet with all of the optimizations for their 90 second test evacuations, the all-bed-plane could still evacuate faster than a plane-full of real passengers. I guess there's just nobody ambitions enough around to try something really new.
