Pews have the advantage of infinitely variable width for each person.  
Children can squash up while those of broader beam can get, or be given, 
those few extra inches.  Chairs can be that bit too narrow so it feels 
you are sitting on your neighbour's knee or deliberately leaving an 
empty chair between you.
