The Thai VietJet incident occurred in February and there is already a thread here.

If the airline has safety issues in not being able to attend to the passenger's possibly special needs in case of an emergency evacuation?

Let the passenger sign a disclaimer form?

Accept him and - in case of problems - face an avalanche of juristic maze?
Would other airlines have accepted the passenger under the preamble of the above? 

It has to remain the discretion of the vendor/service provider to communicate its limits and, in case of exceeding possibilities, refuse selling the product .... or in this case, the airline seat.
