I mean, the only benefit this has is that someone in a wheelchair can now sit next to two people. Pulling up besides the bench always means that you’re on the end.

But since the wheelchair has a back to it and such, you’ll be sitting slightly in front of those two people meaning everyone will have a sore neck.

They couldn’t, though. Because of the space the back of the chair and the radius the wheels requires, the person in the chair would be sitting nearly a foot in front of anyone seated on the bench. e: look at the amount of space with my custom high-end and narrow profile chair (it’s even more space with the standard-issue chair): . Your head will be in line with the leftmost right dot if you’re relaxed. I backed my chair against a door, and that’s fuzz or something. That back bar prevents you from sitting ‘with’ anyone.
