They would gain a BOS hub and a FLL hub. United’s east coast isn’t exactly great and JB would fill that hole.
With all that said there is no way in hell the DOJ allows it.

Why would UAL abandon EWR? They are by far the dominant carrier there. Dominant hubs make more money. See ATL and DFW/CLT.
While JetBlue's hub is large in FLL by their standards it is not really a large hub. Look at MIA as an example.
Boston maybe, but why spend $10b (estimated) on acquiring a carrier just for one airport? JFK would need to be divested and that would hand it to Delta or AA.
