A 37 - 38 row aircraft may not be certifiable from the passenger escape point of view as there is a maximum distance allowed (36 feet?) from a usable escape door plus the maximum allowable time for every pax to get out in an emergency. In addition the turning circle for such a long bird might mean it wouldn't fit on smaller airfields.
