If you ask, and the person agrees then thats great.
Its great that you can make it on 7 hour or longer flights without reclining. But a traveler has paid for a reclining seat. If they have a petite woman sitting behind them then they can recline with no issue. If they get you behind them, they now can't have the full use or enjoyment of the seat that they have paid for.
I get it that you didn't chose to be tall but you did chose to not pay extra for an upgraded seat assignment and are now affecting someone else's flight if you jam your knees into their seat to prevent them from reclining. Those couple of degrees can make a big difference in letting someone sleep or not.
