A-SPEC seat back HEIGHT adjustment

Is it just me, or is the driver seat back in the A-Spec, too low, even at it's highest setting?
It's the same problem, I had in the 2015 TLX
I figured the new Sport seats, would be better; they are more comfy, but still don't raise up high enough
I'm 6'0" and 168 lbs; not exactly obese, or gigantic
Guess I'm nitpicking, because I love the car
Thoughts?

I can't get comfortable in my A-Spec drivers seat. In fact, I get some numbness in my right foot after driving for a while. Unfortunately the seat is not as adjustable as it was in my 2015 TLX. I need to rear of the seat to be able to raise without the front also raising, essentially tilting the seat forward a little bit, which I'm finding out it cannot do. It's the only feature of the car I actively dislike. I'm hoping my body can get used to it because currently it's a real bummer.

You actually CAN tilt the seat forward, without raising the front portion; just lift the back of the control, ONLY
Don't lift the entire control; even so, it doesn't lift high enough for me

I wasn't clear it my description. I am aware it tilts forward, in fact I have it tilted to its maximum. I, like you, don't feel it tilts far enough forward.

Can you angle the back portion more forward?

I actually wish the seats went lower lol, not higher.

My wife has a 2015 TLX sh-awd with tech package. She cannot raise the driver's seat high enough. I understand how the seat controls work. The passenger seat DOES go higher, and that height would be okay for the driver' seat.
We are thinking about taking it into the dealer to check if there is a problem. The warranty will run out in 1.5k miles.
