Width Of A 2nd Class Berth In Indian Trains And Discomfort

A friend of mine mentioned that while sleeping (for the 1st time) in a 2nd class train compartment in india, she found the berth too narrow. She always travels in a higher class (First class or A/C) in trains.

Here is a picture of a 2nd class compartment berth.

See the width, (look to the left and right of the leg). It must be about 22inches (55cm). How can it be insufficient? 

A person must be quite fat (like a north Indian married you know what) to find this berth too narrow to sleep on.

It's difficult to please some people.
