Since they rely on curves for the sitting surface, they should have done a proper saddle chair shape instead. The current design prioritize the manufacturer/corporation over the user/human. This is a failure on my book.

Indeed, looks super uncomfy.
And yeah, I helped a friend who's a furniture designer [1] for a few years.
After a while, when you 'beta test' pieces in development a lot, you understand that looks are great but comfort always wins.

In my mind, the chair is meant to deform some, such that the curved seat gives a bit. But that might just be in my mind
I think you're correct. I think it would form sort of an upside down W shape when sat on, but with softer curves, and no edges digging into the user.
