Call it “priority seating”, let them board the plane early, and charge extra for it. Based on the kindergarten-level aggression in the boarding lines I think people would still be fighting over them even without a window.

A sad display. For a 2h flight. I prefer to hang back and enter the plane last.

Especially since no seat on the plane will be as roomy as the one in the waiting area.
