I always do aisle seats as well for long flights (most flights really). Partly because I'm a little claustrophobic, but mostly for the reasons you listed.

The negative of the aisle seat is sleeping. It's so much easier to sleep when you can lean against the wall where your window is. I can never really get any sleep on planes because whenever I start to pass out, my body feels like it's falling and I wake up in a panic.
