I haven't watched the interactions with great detail, but ours do get
used by folks transferring from a wheelchair or wheely seat-walker....
We only have a few with the flip-up arms. Don't know what the code may
have been in 2005 when they were installed, but there are certainly
fewer of those than of the dispersed removable seating.

In particular who are they for? People using wheelchairs who want to transfer to a theatre seat or people with some disability that makes getting going into a row difficult or not possible, whether that's using a walker or simply a knee that won't bend? I do know house managers rely on them for people who don't fit in a regular seat. Just curious of experiences and observations of others.
