I am all about class but here this is more of a function of very low quality of the service is the root factor.... IMHO

Flying esp in the US is a clown exercise... Sexual harrasst on the way in, long lines, delayed flights is 50% chance. Infrastructure is trash.

We bail out airlines regularly. We give them state aid often... Yet quality is shit...

Boomers have no decorum is the cherry on the shit pie

I don't think their research is in conflict with your perception here.

"The study found that just having a first-class section on an airplane quadrupled the chance of an air rage incident and that loading economy passengers through first class doubles that again."

The whole experience is shit and having a first class section makes it even worse psychologically.
