You won't be seeing those seats around here.
36% of the 20 year Airbus sales forecast is for Asia-Pacific. Places like China and India where cities can be far apart, separated by major geographic obstacles, domestic flights are the most practical way to travel. The market for smaller, cheap to operate aircraft is huge. If you can crack that market today, you'll have an in when they upgrade, because the supply chain and trained maintenance people are in place.
Airbus says, today 32% of the world can be classified as middle-class. I guess that's compared to Europe. Forecasts suggest 62% will be middle-class by 2032, with 400% growth in Asia-Pacific region.
