If you go by the article, it says:

The pointy end of the plane gets JAL's new 'Shell Flat Neo' seats, with a 60 inch pitch and 21 inches width and 171 degree recline – so it's not a true lie-flat product.

A plane is very rarely 100% parallel to the earth, so 171 degrees will become 180. Furthermore, lying flat means you are more likely to snore and be an embuggerance to business passengers around you. 171 degrees is smart.

Nope, not in the slightest. 171 degrees is still a slope, and much less comfortable than fully flat. And I'm pretty sure we were complaining about fellow passengers' snoring in the days of business class recliners. Snorers will snore.

All 'fully flat' or 'horizontally flat' seats are at a slight angle to account for the slight nose-up angle that an aircraft cruises at. 171 degrees is far more than is required for this. In fact, at 60" pitch it should be pretty much the same angle as the old QF Skybed's (quite a steep angle considering these are brand new, long haul aircraft!)
