I think your last paragraph regarding the 'unmentionables', and their attempts at 777/787 SFF - is a prescient peek into the next episode of Air Disasters, and the future of commercial aviation.
Wonder what will happen with A320/A350 MFF ? That certainly sounds like an effort to put safety before efficiency
The same way the notably safety minded American FAA allowed MFF with the MD10 and 11 I suppose.
