No apparently this is actually a thing. I spoke to a driver once about the tray tables and they specifically mentioned something about the cleaning requirement that comes with them.That's a new one on me as a reason for not having seat-back tables! More like it was simply down to cost.
I would say it was a mixture of both, cost and the cleaning. At least we got a table in some capacity at all unlike on the 707s where there is nothing.
