It makes the journey uncomfortable for the user as it causes prob, lack of ventilation, space, and difficulty with locking mechanisms and ease of access to switches.

I disagree. It is great for passengers travelling by RAC ticket. It is very difficult to sit for a whole nights journey on the side seats. Instead this side middle birth allows both the RAC passengers of the side seats to get a opportunity to sleep or lie on their back. I travel every weekend to my home town by a train (night journey) and a lot of times it has saved my back. sitting on the side seats is extremely uncomfortable for an entire night journey.
