Lol! They barely recline I have eaten meals on international flights about 100 times and almost every single time, the seat in front of me was reclined. It seems some of these complainers just don’t have proper motor function?

This is the most stupid noncommittal response ever. Either you are for reclining or not. He just wants passengers to duke it out themselves. If seats can be reclined then passengers may do it if they want. If reclining is not encouraged then just make seats non reclining like Spirit and be done with it. I don’t like Spirit but flew them once and even though seats were small, I knew at least I won’t have anyone literally on my lap, which made my flight somewhat better
This is how it used to be done. You would politely ask the person behind you: "Pardon me. Do you mind if I recline my seat?" 9 times out of 10 the answer would "No problem. Please do."
For the 10% who say "I'm sorry, I've got a baby in my lap (or whatever) and I would prefer that you not recline your seat." Then the person would not recline their seat.
Now everything has to be a stand off and a stare down. Last man standing. It's beyond ridiculous.
Sorry, on a flight to Paris or Hawaii I’m reclining, baby, obesity, or whatever may be going on behind me

Party A gets to use this space by reclining for up to 50% of the flight. Party B gets full use of this space for the remaining 50%.
Once again, see above.

And I've never had an issue sitting up normally for the full length of a flight. If you do, maybe, you know, get a back pillow.
Or I could make use of the function of the seat that I paid for.
Or I could make use of the knee space I paid for. See how this works?
You didn't pay for the right to determine how the seat in front of you use is used. If you can't fit in your seat when the seat in front of you is being used in the way it was supposed to be used, then you need to buy a bigger seat.

Both parties didn't pay for that shared space. The person in the seat paid for a seat that has the ability to recline, which means that the person is entitled to recline it.

I predict the end of the reclining cabin chair. Either that or the flight attendant will sell the right/or sell the right to refuse the right to recline,

Depends how far. Not if reclined all the way.
Are you kidding me? Of course you can still use your tray table if the forward seat is reclined. What an obnoxious exaggeration.
DP. Not sure which planes you've been flying on, but I've travelled a fair bit all around the world on several different airlines and in my experience it's usually pretty difficult for the person to use their tray when the seat in front is reclined. And it seems to be getting worse.
I think this is great - we should all get a knee defender!

Agreed. And pretty much impossible to use a laptop.
You do know that the tray table slides toward you, right? Are you not able to use that feature? Exactly how big is your gut?
Really? We could ask you why you don't take better care of and responsibility for your own health since you apparently can't sit in a chair for a few hours without knowingly upsetting the person sitting behind you who is trying to do something. Do some exercise.
