Couples and families get enough advantages in life. As someone who is usually a single traveler with just a carry-on who prefers the window seat, this sounds awesome. Kinda joking, kinda not. ;)

I do imagine this will cause some chaos in reality. What might be better is if flight attendants carries cattle prods to punish the all the boobs who don't find their seat and stow their carryon in a timely manner. Way too many flyers behave like no one else's time is important.

On the other hand, maybe carry-on items shouldn't be allowed except for personal items. That way, boarding takes far less time because no one has to stow away anything.

That may not make an improvement because loading and unloading checked luggage can take a while, both in logistics to/from the aircraft but also in the actual fairly manual loading/unloading process.
