I completely agree with you that their wing seems outdated and unoptimized, which is amazing when you consider that they actually don't use much more fuel than their competitors. They burn less fuel than the globals, if I remember correctly, and they only burn a little more fuel than Falcons and way less than you'd expect considering that they weigh ~50% more than comparable falcons.
