I can see the airline's point. A bigger person that takes up two seats is therefore getting more "bang for their buck"...or in this case buying the supersized value meal. No, I don't believe it's fair or right, but that is the airline's choice. There has to be some happy medium.
ETA!!!!!
Now that I posted I have a better, more perplexing question. I assume that those who are in wheelchairs cannot fly in regular coach (due to lack of room). So, because of their disability and requirements to fly (possibly) first class, how is that fair? I do know that the first row of coach in some planes are more roomy, but what if?!?!?! Hope this makes sense!

No my system works better. It's a sin tax. Those that aren't sinning and have health issues would be protected through deductions.
