I was just commenting to a friend (who was on a massively delayed flight out of SFO yesterday) that, when I'm in Economy, I want a window so I can see what's going on outside. I feel anxious during delays and just want to get off the ground.
When I'm in business class, I simply don't care what's going on outside. Let me know when we land.
Now, bear with me, because this might sound obvious, but I don't think it is. You can have in-flight-entertainment in Economy. You can have videos playing on your tablet or whatever. We have far more distractions than ever before. You can read your book, listen to your music. The seats are comfortable enough in the first hour of your delay. At 5'10" I have sufficient legroom.
I think the difference is the seat pitch. I don't consider myself claustrophobic, but staring at a seatback 2 feet in front of my face just makes me want to see what the hell is going on to get me off the ground and to my destination. I think this is far more of an issue than the curvature of the fuselage.
