Some of those are neat. However, I just can't see any airline taking the space to give a passenger both a seat and a separate bed except for all-premium service ultra-long haul flights with limited seating to start with.

Even Pan Am:

"The B-314 could carry 74 passengers and 10 crew, although in overnight sleeper configuration, the ship accommodated 40 passengers in seven luxurious compartments, including a 14-seat dining room and a private “honeymoon suite” at the tail end of the plane."

Even back then it was a case of reduced capacity and special accommodations for premium passengers...
