Why don't we have bunk style bed racks for international flights? I'd gladly take a sedative, crawl into my cubby hole and wake up at my destination 6-12 hours later with no recollection of time loss. Of course, some sort of health screening would be necessary to ride Anesthesiologist Airlines.

Safety regulations. Such designs usually can't be evacuated in a manner that is timely enough to meet requirements.

Safety first might not be a good rule to guide civilization by. It basically means doing nothing is the best path. Maybe safety third would work better?
