I’ve been on a few flights in which the seat reclined by swinging forward, rather than pivoting backward. So, the impact of the recline was fully experienced by the recliner, and not at all by the person in the seat behind.

that's a great idea -- though i have not experienced this myself (except in some movie theaters) I presume such chairs are costlier to manufature and maintain -- so most cheap airlines do not opt for them

  More likely they're a newer design, and won't appear in the cheaper airlines until those planes trickle down. They're singled in the middle so the bottom slides forward, the top slides back.

That's genius. Way better than this interminable game theory experiment the airlines are running.
