As a New Yorker, whenever I visit Paris or other cities with metros that have upholstered seats, I always have a sense of disgust and fear I’m going to get bed bugs sitting on a seat. I don’t understand why they don’t have plastic seats like we do in the MTA for sanitary reasons.

Try sitting on a plastic seat for six hours, it’s no fun.
On a metro commute you aren’t sitting for more than 90 minutes if all goes well. And paris is pretty small compared to NYC or London.
Comfort, I assume
When I visited Japan every seat on transit was fabric. Coming from SEPTA in Philly it truly skeeved me out
I wonder if we could make more comfortable seats that aren’t easy warm homes for bugs
