The new trains are less comfortable to ride on, mainly because the seats are too narrow. Less seats would be better. But I'm in favour of less seats and the perimeter model because waiting in the cold as a full train goes by is unbelievably unpleasant. I'll trade less comfort on the odd day I get to sit down for much more comfort on the odd day I get on the train instead of waiting outside in the cold.
The new trains are worse most of the time, but way better on the days when things go bad. Considering how often that happens with CT, it seems like a worthwhile trade for me.
