Don't give them ideas - there's longitudinal seating coming from Reading on EL and class 700s, really designed for commuter travel with basic interiors, now go as far to East Anglia or the Sussex coast with uncomfortable ironing boards. All which would have been inconceivable in the past.
If Southeastern gets something similar to class 701s with toilets & normal seating then these would be OK for metro/short distance like Orpington etc.
Other than the tip up seats where the Wheelchair and Bike spaces are, there's no Longitudinal seating on a Class 700... And that does fine for the busy Core section.
